I am running Outlook 2003 but cannot find a way of stopping the spell check
from checking all of the text when replying to e-mails. I have checked the
settings under Tools-Options-Spelling and the 'Ignore original message text
in reply or forward' is ticked. I have tried unticking and re-applying but
this has had no effect.

Also, although the dictionary is set to English (U.K.), when the spell check
dialogue box comes up it is bannered English (U.S.)!

Any ideas?

Thanks.
 
if you have outlook set to add > or other prefix, it will always spell
check - about half the time an alert pops up when you set the prefix to warn
you...
 
Thanks Diane but not sure I understand. Could you explain what you mean by
"add >"? Is this some form of setting in Outlook and, if so, where do I
find it?
 
tools, options, email options... prefix options at the bottom of the list.

if you are prefixing replies with > outlook will spell check the original.
 
Thanks Diane - I see that box isn't ticked! :(
