What to do with renegade spell checker?

I'm using Outlook 2002 and Office XP.

No matter what I do, the Outlook email spell checker keeps defaulting
to English (US). I want English (Australia), but after I select it, it
keeps changing back.

In Word, the spell checker is English (Australia).
In Control Panel>Regional and Language Options, the region is
Australia, the language is English (Astralia).

My second gripe is that even though I have selected to ignore the
original message text (Outlook>Options>Tools>Spelling), no matter what
I do, the spell checker goes through the original message and picks
out all its mistakes.

Can anyone assist?
 
I think if you switch your mail format to rich text it should take care of
the changing of the English(US) and English(Australia). That is the only
way I could reproduce the problem.

I could not however reproduce the second issue.
 
Hi Toby,
Actually, changing to rich text seemed to fix my second problem but
not the first :~)
Thanks for your help. I'll have to keep working on the spell checker!

Regards
