The registry setting looks correct.
Alternately, you may use the following REG file to set the default spell check language:

Download the file to Desktop. Right-click on the file and choose Merge. Click "Yes" to confirm. Note that this REG file does not bring back the language options in the "Spelling" tab dropdown box, but sets English as the default language. Let's know how this goes.

I've clicked on spelling and I don't get a drop down menu. I have checked
everywhere and don't see the options. I tried your following suggestion and
here's what's posted:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\clsid\{275C23E2-3747-11D0-9FEA-00AA003F8646}
(Default) REG_SZ Multi Language Support
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\clsid\{275C23E2-3747-11D0-9FEA-00AA003F8646}\InProcServer32
(Default) REG_EXPAND_SZ %SystemRoot%\system32\mlang.dll
ThreadingModel REG_SZ Both

I tried Ramesh's suggestion below to no avail. In fact, no language drop down
appeared. Suggestions?

Can you list the relevant bug ID for this problem? I'm assuming it exists (or
I'm going to go create one). I'd like to track it. It's a very annoying bug
for a clean installation of your newest OS. I wish I'd seen and reported it
during beta.
:
Start Windows Mail
Click the Tools menu and choose Options...
Click the Spelling tab
From the Language drop-down, select English (default choice)
Click OK
Error "This language is no longer available for spell checking" when using the Spell Checker in Windows Mail:
