What were you trying to do?
	Check spelling of messages as they are being composed.

What's wrong:
	Spelling isn't checked.  From the Ximian support site, this
	should be automatic provided gnome-spell is installed and
	configured, which I suppose it isn't.

What should have happened:
	Spelling should be checked, highlighting spelling errors
	in the document.  Note that Pine and exmh both have
	functioning spell checkers (although Pine's needs to
	be invoked explicitly via Control-T).

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	support.ximian.com, Answer ID 57 for Product: Evolution,
	Category: Configuring.
