You, like everyone else who has answered this question, gave the same answer.
This made me very curious so I have investigated this further - dictionaries
are functioning as they should btw.
Under Spell Checker/Options I noticed that 'Ignore capitalised words (e.g.
Europe)' was checked. Aha, problem answered I thought (which it kind of did).
But the spelling error appeared when I typed it again.
In the process of working out what the hell was going on, I think I've
revealed what could be a little 'glitch'.
If you first make sure Spell Checker/Options - 'Ignore capitalised words'
option is checked, then follow these steps:
1) Type unfortunantly, misspelling it (as is done here) and giving it
an uppercase first letter, U. No spelling error even though it is. WHich
is of course 'sort' of the purpose of 'Ignore capitalised words', perhaps.
2) THEN, if you backspace out the uppercase U character, and type in a lower
case 'u' in its place, you will see that the spell checker won't pick it up.
3) If you then change the 'u' for an 'e', the spelling will show as an
error, but then change it back to a LOWER case 'u' again, and it reverts
back to not being recognised as an error. Very curious!

Have not had this one.

Yes, I do know about it, and was using it, thanks :) I am in the middle of
having all my domains hosted elsewhere, plus a new ISP, etc., so I am
creating new templates at the moment for all accounts, people, lists, etc.
They all needed a face lift really. Anyway, the point is I have been trying
them out here and there and have just forgotten to put it in that 'temporary'
reply template. Hopefully, all my templates will be set up and sorted very
soon.
It irritates Allie as well btw ;-) - Isn't that right Allie? ;-))
