Hi, In "Composition/Spelling" I have both the "Check spelling before sending" and "Enable spell check as you type" boxes ticked. In spite of this my spelling errors are not being highlighted. What can I try next to rectify this problem? Hoping someone can help, All the best, Wayne

Hi sfhowes, Many thanks for your suggestion. Where do I find which dictionary is installed/enabled? The lack of spell checking is recent and Thunderbird always used to do this in the past. Might I need to add on a dictionary or language pack? Kind Regards, Wayne

The installed dictionaries are listed under Settings/Composition/Spelling, Language:. There's also a 'Download More Dictionaries' link. Or, install from this page. Language packs only change the text of the interface - dictionaries are for spelling.
