I found that when creating a thread Spell Check operates on the Subject line, but not in the Post Body portion of the thread.

Never too old to have a happy childhood!

I have to believe that doesn't work for CandOforProgress.Laugh

Laugh Or, perhaps the feature has just been added to thread titles?

I just started a thread and the system let me spell things in the subject line any way I wanted to.

My spell check operates on the subject line except that it accepts "spel" without a hiccup (go figure) but rejects other misspellings.  I tried that in a Word document and "spel" gets flagged, but Word uses its own dictionary.  Apple Mail, on the other hand, accepts "spel" at least on my laptop here.

Go figure.

 But what is their motive!?  That's what really concerns me.
