Re: [Evolution] Regarding how to get spell checking working -- I know how! :-)

[Bill Kenworthy <billk iinet net au>]

Spell checking is working for me with Aspell .32.5 alpha.  However I
cannot control it.  Once I select suggest word, I have to select a word
before I can get back to the message - and the select box is sometimes
blank which means the message has to be closed before I can regain
control!

I saw "gtkhtml capplet" mentioned once, where can I find/run this from
if that will allow me to set some sane defaults?

The test-gnome-spell-capplet (?) seems to work OK, but the dialog box
doesnt show within evolution, I just get a little "suggest word" text
popup and I cannot find anything on the evolution menus to define some
default behaviour.
