Not sure here.

Glad I could help.

It's weird, the text box containing the message, just "disappears" when
I use "Edit -> Spell check document...", or I right click on a
misspelled word.

I even exited Evolution, ran killev and oaf-slay, changed mu language to
"en_CA".  In the Gnome control centre, I have two HTML Viewer's, one
under "*MISSINGNAME*" and one under "Document Handlers".  If I change
the settings in one, the changes are visible in the other.

The highlighting is an improvement over nothing, now to figure it out
the rest of the way.

Cheers!
