Original Message Text in Reply or Forward Not Ignored in Spell Che

Before sending emails at work, I have the spell checker run. When using Word
as the Outlook email editor, spell checking does not appear to honor the
following Outlook option under the Spelling tab:
"Ignore original message text in reply or forward."
When using the Outlook editor I don't have a problem, but when using Word
the orignal message is checked regardless if the previous Outlook option is
enabled. When there's a considerable amount of text being replied or
forwarded, this is very annoying, especially when replying with the same text
multiple times.
Is there some setting that I may not have enabled?

I have the same problem even when Word is not my email editor. I hate this,
and I've had this problem in both Outlook 2000 and 2002. Why doesn't
Microsoft fix this?

Same thing here. And BTW, you'll still have it in Outlook 2003! My
workaround? I avoid typos....and I never spell check!

Well it's quite apparent that no tech support person from Microsoft is going
to provide an answer.

That's funny. I've had consistent good luck recently, but for a while there
I felt invisible. I even created a hotmail email account to use, called
something like "HotBlondeBabe" hoping that it would get me answers.

Darn, I would have jumped right on that. :)

Considering that the Microsoft tech people don't read these newsgroup, it's
not surprising. They're not official support channels but peer-to-peer
forums.

I just run spell check until it finishes my document and when it starts
checking the forwarded document just cancell spell check and it will ask you
if you want to send it any way. Then just hit yes and there it goes without
schecking all of the original mumble jumble.
