Make sure you have "gnome-spell" >= 1.0.5, "aspell" and "aspell-XX" (where "XX" is your locale, for example "aspell-en" for US English or "aspell-en-uk" for British English) installed, depending on your distribution package system. Evolution does not use "myspell". Then go to "Edit | Preferences | Composer Preferences | Spell Checking", and enable the available languages. As you haven't told which languages you have installed, please also note that some languages require "gnome-spell" >= 1.0.7 to be supported by Evolution. You can also check gnome-enabled dictionaries by using the application "gconf-editor". The GConf key "/GNOME/Spell/language" should contain a space-separated list of the languages you have enabled (i.e. "en-US es" for US english and Spain). cheers, andre
