No, at least I don't think so.

I believe the spell checking only works for...

English(USA,) French, Spain and German
 
The only option is to edit the UserDictionary.lex file in the message store
and insert Italian words into that.

oh dear, are you telling me these dudes up there at MS corportion haven't
thought of us italians? this is ridiculous, they could have adapted other
dictionaries to fit the formats for windows mail, couldn't they? For the
price it costs, the italians could have had some help in checking their
spelling errors. Down with MS

And u in Neighbours etc. catches me out.

BTW Are there many differences between Aus and UK English?
 
damn it's even a free source on the web, yet MS mail doesn't have it.......
why i am very curious about this strange choise they made...... to force all
italians to buy the new MS outlook?

None in written English that I can think of offhand. Expressions, as well as
accents, will always be different, even within the same country. Of course
many Poms can't understand their neighboUrs from 20 Kms away!

We used to have gaols, now we have jails. Perhaps they will become jailz.

I'd be surprised if business in the UK, here and other countries doesn't see
this as a serious issue. If I were still in the work force, it would be
enough for me to, at least, be looking for alternatives.

Money talks!

I believe Italian is included in Windows Live Mail.
 
I wouldn't bother with that considering that the new Windows Live Mail
is supposed to have support for 39 languages.

Maybe, but why was a half baked replacement for Outlook Express allowed to
be released in the first place?

MS and the beta testers stand condemned.
 
Why condemn beta testers for something they had no control over?
During the beta testing phase the testers submitted numerous
Windows Mail bug reports, many of which were ignored by Microsoft.

Gary, I take your general point regarding the beta testers - however I
haven't seen any outcry regarding these 'many ignored bugs'.

As I've said elsewhere, I've been using MS products since DOS 3.n. This is
the worst upgrade I've encountered.

The entire family of microsoft.public.windows.vista fora
is a loud and clear testement to said outcry.

You ain't seen nothing yet.

As the variety of hardware and software substrates continually expands
future upgrades will progressively become more problematic.
