spelling check windows mail I am NOT an American

[Tomhad]

I keep getting Windows Mail spell check correcting me as if I am an American.
The rest of the world including Australia where I live SPEAK ENGLISH not
AMERICISH. how do I change the dictionary in Windows Mail, any one know ?

Actually, you speak Australianisch, ¿nicht wahr? Office defines eighteen
varieties of English including yours, with spelling and proofing tools for
each one. You might try using Outlook 2007 instead.

There doesn't appear to be any way to add dictionaries to Windows Mail, but
you might check the aftermarket for products that do this. Windows Live
Mail (http://get.live.com) is a Microsoft product that can be used for
australianische spell checking, although some tweaking is required. See the
Windows Live Mail discussion group if you are interested in this route.
Outlook does it "right out of the box" though. Please, "Amerikanisch".

No, there is no non-American English dictionary for Windows Mail, and there
probably never will be.

There is a workaround to get British/Aussie dictionaries in the newer
Windows Live Mail.

We have the same problem over here.

Simply ignore the corrections offered, and choose Add, not sure how you guys
spell neighbour or colour but my spell chuck accepts them now
