   Ah. So my old Thunderbird newsreader must have an English spell   
   correction dictionary then? Weird as Google says Mozilla is based in the US.   
      
   BTW I got a new laptop so am back to using my old copy of TB. I lasted   
   well over a month without Windows but like any addict I came back. And I   
   really didn't like that Android newsreader anyway. It was a PITA for   
   sure. The new LT toy is an Auusda brand. I chuckle when I say it because   
   it sounds like someone having a hard sneeze to me...
