That's weird. I use Gvim to edit web mail via the Mozex extension. I
can place "this is a tset" at line one in my message after executing the
`set filetype=mail` command, and it will be spell-checked. I don't have
to include any headers or empty lines or anything else like that.
Hm. Apparently you're right. By doing the following:
:new
:setl ft=mail
:setl spell
a
this is a tset
with a space at the end of the line, I get a blue curly underline under
"this" and a red one under "tset".
Do you have spell checking on? Normally yes, but still... what is the reply
to
:verbose setlocal spell?
when you do it (with the question mark) in a window where the 'filetype' is
set to "mail" but you don't see spell-check highlights? Unless you yourself
set 'spell' on, e.g. by having "set spell" in your vimrc, Vim will by
default do no spell-checking at all.
I'm sorry; I can't post to the list, although I can read it. (Feel free
to forward it.)
Just to say that I don't get spelling checked with html files either.

I. To post to the list, you must:
1. Subscribe to it. This is a two-step process, see
http://www.vim.org/community.php
2. Send a message, in plain text only, to the list address (e.g., vim -at- vim
-dot- org), "from" your subscribed address.
II. You didn't say whether 'spell' was set.
Best regards,
Tony.
