There is if you're using OE and have Word installed (as I understand it OE uses the Word
Dictionary).

If you plan on frequenting the newsgroups on a regular basis then you

I'm not 100% certain why spell check wasn't included but I can assure
you it was requested.
Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for
assistance by email can not be acknowledged.

Stomper shared this with us in microsoft.public.word.docmanagement:
Spell checking, if required, has to be done by the usenet client of the
person who posts the message. It is NOT done server-side after the
message is posted - that would be a violation of internet standards.
Currently you use the web interface, but if you use a real usenet
client, it can have a spell checker on board or as an add-on.
For example:
* Outlook Express can use the Word spell checker
* XanaNews uses the free ispell spell checker, if it is installed.
More info on usenet clients can be found on http://www.newsreaders.com.
