    thasnks,
    You'll have to elaborate more in details.

    Speel Check only works on the message you are typing. What's wrong with that ?
    Please explain what do you want SpellCheck to do.

    thasnks,
    Not being funny, but why do you need a spell checker for a message you haven't created?

    If the spell checker works for each message you create, what exactly is the problem?

    Try Tools>Options>Spelling and see if you can configure the settings from there.

    Open Live Mail, top left hand corner you'll see a small blue box with a drop down arrow - click it and choose Options, then Mail, click the Spelling tab and check the box Always check mail before sending

    And yes, it's a good idea to have this box checked, you never know when you may forget to do a spell check

    Good luck.

    Or you could see if other spell checkers are more to your liking:

    Speckie - spell check for IE

    ieSpell - Spell Checker add-on for Internet Explorer

    As already mentioned to you, you can enable " Always check spelling before sending "option.
    But, if you have already enabled " Check my spelling as I type ",then all the messages you sent had beem spell-checked. Why would you need to worry about it at all ?
    To enable both " Always check spelling before sending " and " Check my spelling as I type " would be redundant. Don't you think ?

    Bear in mind that if you mis-spell, there will be a jagged red line underneath the mis-spelled word. You will have to correct that before you continue typing. Yes ?
    So,why the extra worry ?
