There is a Spellbound out so you don't have to mouse over your misspelled words to correct them. Scroll to Spellbound!
But this breaks/disables the inline spell checking..
If your writing a long email I can see where this would come in handy but you should still be able to use the old way too.(most of the time I would forget to check the spelling if the red line wasn't there.)
Ok nevermind. It just disables it.
Open tools>options>check spell as I type.
ridge, for whatever reason, I didn't even have to do that, it still underlined the misspelled words.
