Very cool, I found these files just after sending this email. I opened and 
deleted the word in the filename  you stated. It is not suggesting the foul 
work for that name now, just stops on the name with no suggestions listed. 
However, it also stops on 11pt, 1f497d, Calibri, mso, fareast, latin, bidi and 
ansi which must be imbedded text because the name is the only work listed in 
the email test.  Even after restarting services I am seeing this. The modified 
file looks like a life saver to me.

 

Thanks, Jim

The dictionary files used by the spellchecker can be found in the "dic" folder 
under the WebClient directory.  These are simply text files that can be edited 
using notepad. The one you will want to modify is the English file which is 
named "en-US.dic". Newer versions of Imail have the words you mentioned and 
several others removed.  I'll send you the most recent version of the 
dictionary file so you don't have to find and edit all the offending words 
yourself.

        Subject: [IMail Forum] Spellchecker problems

        Received a new complaint today: User has a last name of Kijowski in the 
body of the message, runs spell checker and is recommended two choices 
cocks**ker and cocks**kers. This is a school principle and there is fear that 
the name can be substituted and parents may not like that. 

         

        I do recall working with the .clx files in the distant past and have 
them in each domain’s root directory. But it seems things are different now. I 
found this in the knowledgebase it is from 7.0+. I am running 2006.03 version 
of Imail. 

        The Spell Checker contains compressed dictionary files which have a 
.clx extension, and cannot be edited.

        Each user has a user dictionary that they can customize to fit their 
needs. This file is called Userdict.tlx and can be edited by completing the 
following steps. To edit the User Dictionary, select Edit User Dictionary from 
the Options menu. This option allows the user to customize the user dictionary, 
by adding or deleting words.

        Dictionary Explanations:
        American English (ssceam2.clx) This is a compressed file and is not 
editable. 

        British English (sscebr2.clx) This is a compressed file and is not 
editable.

        User Dictionary (UserDict.tlx) This dictionary is created for the new 
user. Words can be added to or removed from the user dictionary. Words in user 
dictionaries may be offered as suggestions for misspelled words

        Because the default files cannot be edited, I was hoping to login add 
this name to my spellchecker, creating the UserDict.tlx file mentioned above, 
than copy this to each user. I did the addition, but the .tlx file was NOT 
generated. However, testing the spell checker afterwards worked. I have a 
second account and decided to do the same. Spell checking worked on it without 
modification, so I tried a third account, it worked also. I than created cached 
files and tried again and all three account reverted back to flagging the not 
too nice suggestion. I am confused and cannot find anything on the spell 
checker in 2006 manuals except for how it is used. Has anyone experienced this 
or modified the spell checker?  Seems the tlx file is not used in 2006 and 
there is no documentation to go on that I can find.

         

        Thanks, Jim
