    Windows Mail doesn't have it, but Windows Live Mail does.
    For example. if you type "teh" it will correct it to "the".
    To upgrade, go to http://get.live.com/betas/maildesktop_betas

    That is not a feature of WM, or its predecessor OE, MS Office Outlook has
    it, try a third party tool, I have not used it, because I did not look out
    of the window during English lessons at school like some :-))
    Try this one.

    In Windows Live Mail, there is a Contacts link near the lower left corner.
    Normally you would start a new email, and then click on 'To:', which
    will bring up your contacts, or start typing in the To field and likely matches
    will pop up.
