How do I turn on the english setting for the email spell check.
 
When I do that, it only list American, French, German and Spanish. How do I
get English or Hebrew?
 
I have an intermittent issue with messages. Sometimes the messages can be
viewed through the preview pane, but when I open them, the opening window is
transparent, i.e. the window opens, but the message isn't inside it. Also,
the window is translucent, in that I can see the objects behind it, even if
I grab it and move it around. Once this happens, I no longer can send or
receive messages. It doesn't error out, just doesn't do anything. Only
solution I've found is to restart Vista. It sometimes does this several
times a day, or not for days. Can't seem to find a pattern to the lock up.
Any ideas ?

Thanks, George
 
Windows Mail often behaves erratically when interfered with by
some antivirus programs. Windows Mail is not compatible with
most McAfee and Norton security programs. Those will need to
be uninstalled, not just disabled.

After uninstalling your non-compatible antivirus, download
and install a more compatible antivirus like the free Avast:

Even compatible antivirus programs will need to have their
email scanning option turned off. For more on this topic see

Only those four languages are available for spell checking in Windows Mail.
If you must have other languages, switch to Outlook or Thunderbird.
