The spell checker identifies incorrect spelled words, however when I right click or control click the word the spell checker only highlights in yellow the first word in the email and gives a dialog with the spelling and definition even though that word already correctly spelled. This is version 33.1 on my mac desktop running 10.10. Spell checking works properly if I use Safari.

A spell checker works when using the Safari browser. I am not aware that any spell checker works on web sites other than for the email function. I do have a spell checker function in my word processing and other such applications.
