     Outlook Express (OE) is designed to only use MS Office for spell 
checking.  However, there are several inexpensive or free programs 
which will spell check OE.
     Did you know that you can email from within OpenOffice.org (OOo)? 
File > Send > document as MS Word will use OE to send the document in 
Word's format as an attachment. This will allow you to create your 
email in OOo, spell check it, and then send it as a Word attachment.
     You could also create the email message in OOo, spell check it, 
and then cut and paste it into OE.
