A section that can be setup to auto-subsitute would be cool also. Thanks. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Receive an email from someone that has a typo in it, or a statement with a shortened month. 2.Choose reply, type in something, and then let the spell check run. 3.It will start looking at the reply contents for spelling errors. Actual Results: It displayed the typos in the part of the message that was replied to. Expected Results: It should skip over any replied to or forwarded material, they can correct their own spelling:) In my case it wanted to correct an abbraviated month in a copy of my electric bill.
