On my version of OE, which I don't normally use, the option is to tick to ignore "the original text in a reply or forward". This is nothing to do with whether it spell-checks what you've typed in a reply. I normally have the automatic check-before-sending disabled, but when enabled it does work on replies.
I normally use Google's off-line version of gmail webmail using the Chrome browser, and that spell-checks as I type, ignoring errors in quoted text but checking everything I type.
