spell check
Hi,
Following the installation of version 4.0.1 on my netbook running windows 7 starter, The spell checker underlines every word in the document. I checked that the language was set correctly and the dictionaries were also set, in the tools options menu. I have tried uninstalling it and the re - install but nothing works.
I tried to register on the forum but it would not accept my e-mail and version/ operating system

I run a script over the mbox files to see how many posts are from
non-subscribers. Over 2013 40% of new threads on the users list are
started by non-subscribers. So this is very common. My practice is
to copy the poster on any response unless the name is familiar to me
as a regular poster. This is non-optimal, since that can lead the the
followup post coming to me alone.
In any case, the 40% number shows that this is not a random occasional
accident, but is a mainstream way of using this mailing list. If we
changed the list to disallow posts by non-subscribers (which we could)
then we'd have the different problem of the 40% who have a single
question to post, but then have difficulties unsubscribing. As we
know that can generated even more noise on the list.

I investigated this with Infra last year. I even posted to the ezmlm-idx
mailing list looking for possible solutions. But this went nowhere:
Infra is not going to hack the software and developers apparently are
not going to implement this feature. If someone wants further details
and links to restart the discussion I can retrieve them.

Hagar;
That only works if you are on the beta channel for Thunderbird. In
release version the filters still do not work due to there being 2
Delivered-to headers. I just tried to download the Version 27 beta to
try it out and there is currently no Windows version available.

Top posting,
The filter works fine now with Thunderbird so a mere filter is now enough to add a tag/color to such messages.
Using TB 27 now but it worked again in a previous version (at least 26).

True, but it would be a big help if the list software could be
configured to tag the subject line of messages that had passed
moderation with something like [MODERATED]. This was done (albeit not
with 100% reliably) on the old OOo users list.

Any one can send a note to the list, though posts from non-subscribers
are held in moderation, and passed through if it is not spam. The
same is true of all of our mailing lists.
This means that it is always a good idea to copy the person asking the
question when responding, especially if it is not a name you
recognize. You could also check the email headers to see if it was
moderator (look for "Delivered-To: moderator") but this can be a pain,
depending on your email client.

Shouldn't it be a requirement that if you want an answer to your
question, you be a member of the group? Else, what's the point? I Know
you'll say "I don't mind." but again what's the point.
