Worked for me! Yet another bug with Vista. Compatibility issues starting to
wear on me as well. Having to download patches, fixes, new drivers. Old
software does not work, people with XP cannot seem to open my attachments.

The registry setting looks correct.

Alternately, you may use the following REG file to set the default spell check language:
http://www.winhelponline.com/fixes/spellchk_settings.reg

Download the file to Desktop. Right-click on the file and choose Merge. Click "Yes" to confirm. Note that this REG file does not bring back the language options in the "Spelling" tab dropdown box, but sets English as the default language. Let's know how this goes.

I've clicked on spelling and I don't get a drop down menu. I have checked

I had the same problem today. You are using Windows Mail with the new
Windows Vista. In your Windows Mail click on TOOLS then OPTIONS then
SPELLING you will see Settings: make sure the box is checked for Always
check spelling before sending. Hope this helps. It works for me now.

I tried opening a new email and then selected tools expecting to see options
in the drop down menu where your directions advised I could click on and see
English as a default selection. There is no option in the drop down menu
after selecting tools

Any other suggestions

When you open a new email it puts you in the compose screen.
You need to be in the main Windows Mail screen.

Support for UK English spelling is currently not available for Windows Mail.
There is some hope for the future: Microsoft has announced they are
releasing a replacement email client (Windows Live Mail) later this month
which will have support for 39 languages.
