Vista - Windows e-mail spell check

Why in heavens name am I getting a message of "This language is no longer
available" in the Vista Windows e-mail spell check, regarding English!!! This
is America you know...whether is has been deemed our "official" language or
not...it always has been. Please fix asap.

Thanks

If you use the search function looking for spell check you should find the
answer, just in case you can't I've copied it in.

Regards

Simon

I have been working to try to get spell check in english on windows mail for
about a half an hour. Why in heavens name can't a novice like me find
something simple to do to make this correction?

In the main window of Windows Mail, go to Tools, Options, Spelling,
select a language other than English, click Apply, select English,
click Apply, OK. That should do it.

I went to tool, options, spelling then I put in another laungage & hit
apply. Then go back & make it english & hit apply. Then it was fine. Hope
this helps.
