Hi, Using an up-to-date TW install, I noticed that evolution no longer underlines misspelt words. The message view menu Edit → Current Languages only shows "Unknown (fi)". I would like English spell checking, what am I missing?

Hi,

I would like English spell checking, what am I missing?

Thanks,

Robert

Hi, I believe evolution uses enchant as well as claws mail, have you tried solution from [1] — `zypper in enchant-1-backends`? [1] https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2018-08/msg00126.html -- Kind regards, Mykola Krachkovsky -- Найкращі побажання, Микола Крачковський

PS If evolution uses enchant2 then use something like `zypper in enchant-2-backend-hunspell -enchant-2-backend-voikko` to install hunspell backend and remove Finnish. -- Kind regards, Mykola Krachkovsky -- Найкращі побажання, Микола Крачковський

I was missing enchant-2-backend-hunspell ( the others were installed ) and now 'Unknown (en_US)' appears as an option. That solves it, even though the UI is not that nice. Thanks! Robert
