Yahoo has been touting their new version of email for some time. They have finally warned of a 9/19/11 pending deadline to make the change. Thinking I'd just get it done, I did so this AM. The email page (plain text) provided no spell check button, so I looked around to see if I were just missing it. Finally came across their ststement; "spell check not available on plain text email." BUGGERS! I have had an email set up on Comcast so long I've forgotten the access route, but I don't care for the idea of making the change.Tried downloading a free "Email Spell Check" and got rid of it almost immediately. Joke! Has anyone else run into this and have some advise. I keep a large print dictionary on hand, but is tedious. I wonder how many of these words have been misspelled.
i would have recommended using your Yahoo account via a desktop email client (most of which have spell check built-in) however i can't tell if you have to pay Yahoo to get IMAP access; you could just try it using these settings (disregarding the "mobile" context):
