Greetings --
Outlook Express, as you're apparently just discovering, has never
had any spell-checking capabilities of its own. Instead, it relies
upon the presence of certain specific other Microsoft applications,
such as the Office Suite, Word, or the Works _Suite_ (which includes
Word, not the regular Works). There are also some 3rd-party
shareware/freeware solutions available at any of the many shareware
sites on the Internet
Spell Magic seems well thought-of, though I haven't tried it myself:

Help us help you:
You can have peace. Or you can have freedom. Don't ever count on
having both at once. -- RAH
