I have no dictionary in the spell check for Thunderbird, so I tried many times to download the ONLY ONE English dictionary offered. It will not download no matter what I try. I have been using Mozilla for years and always had a spell checker, but for some unknown reason I don't have one anymore. Sally Lunn
