The F7 function (spell check) on my email does not work. It says it is
notavailable in this language, but I can not change the language. Can anyone
help?

Windows Mail comes with the default language for spelling checks partly
set to English, but not enough to work. To correct this, click on Tools in
the main window of Windows Mail, then Options, then Spelling, then the
triangle to the right of the language, then any language except English,
then Apply, then the triangle again, then English, then Apply again.

If you also want to enable spelling checks for all outgoing messages, and
there is no check mark in the box before Always check spelling before
sending, click on this box, then Apply.

Click on OK.

If you only want spelling checks in part of the outgoing messages, start
those messages as usual, but just before you click Send in the new
message window, click the ABC checkmark.
