Hello,
When i do an error in the body part of a mail (or a news-post) i see the
bad word red underlined with "~" characters.
Then i select this word and click on the "Spell" button - i receive a
list of correct words where i can decide which one i want to replace my
bad word.
If i do an error in the "Subject" part of a mail (or a news-post) i see
also the bad word red underlined with "~" characters.
BUT the "Spell" Button is greyed - so unusable.
Two solutions to cure the problem:
1. Permit the "Spell" button to work.
2. Stop underlining bad words in the Subject.
What happens if you right click over the misspelled word?
I just tried it and in subject line it still gives me a list of choices
to change it to so that should work just fine for you.
I did try your method and do see the bug, but the work around in right
click over it, which IMHO is a better way to use spell check anyway.
It does seem inconsistent...
The "as you type" spell-check (red underlines) does check the subject
line, and shows suggestions if you right-click on a misspelled word there.
The spell-check dialog ("Spell" button or Edit > Check Spelling...) only
checks the body; it does not detect a misspelled word in the subject.
Related to this, having "Check spelling before sending" selected
activates the spell-check dialog, so does not detect an error in the
subject.
I'd expect all to check the same areas - ideally to include the subject
line. Looks like it's already reported:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=368915
(Also of mild amusement - there is a menu item Edit > Spellcheck As You
Type, but "Spellcheck" as one word like that is flagged as an error by
the spell checker...)
Mark.
