How do I use spell check on my e-mails?
How does the spell check on Thunderbird work? I have been used to Outlook Express and can not fathom out how the spell check works on my e-mails in Thunderbird. When I click on the ABC symbol... up comes the spell check box...... but I can not do anything with it.
