   	Does anyone know how to do this, back up the work   
   and add the modified dictionary to a new installation?   
      
   	I have been thru the same hassle myself as my   
   posts to several list use specialised jargon and for   
   example medical terminology.  Adding to the dictionary   
   seems to be broken.  There seems to be no way to   
   permanently add words in proper spellings to the   
   things.
