    Of course you do know of the existence of on-line dictionaries?

    And if your using one of the Mozilla browsers there are Australian dictionaries / spell checkers which work directly within the AULRO new message post window.

    Not for me. Does this have to be specifically enabled?

    If you have specifically installed this 'add in' and using a Mozilla browser then from within the new message post window 'right click' to display a drop down menu. You should see an option to 'Check Spelling'. Make sure that is 'checked' and under the 'Languages' option make sure Australian English is enabled.

    Spelling mistakes will then be underlined red. To see spelling alternatives place your cursor on the underlined word and right click. Select the correct word from the list provided.

    Werks four mee.

    EDIT There are also some options related to spelling in the browsers 'preferences' itself - you may have to set some of those also, but I'm not sure - I have everything checked in my browser.
