Description Thomas.W 2010-01-03 13:32:03 UTC
Version:           1.12.4 (using KDE 4.3.4)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

I installed aspell (0.60.6-2) and aspell-de (20091006-3) with apt-get.

Now I wanted to use aspell for German spellchecking in KMail.

Firstly; I set the standard language to "Deutschland"(Germany) in the 
systems settings --> land,region,language--> spellchecking.


But when composing a new mail, I need to set the standard language in KMail to "Deutschland" again (New Mail -->Settings->spell checking).

Then I have the German spellcheckin for KMail.  

However; the standard language settings won't be saved in KMail. Restarting KMail means resetting the standard language to "Deutschland" again.

I always have to set the standard language to "Deutschland" then the spell checking works in KMail. Unfortunately, the standard language setting cannot be persisted.

In bug #220843 it is suggested to change the spellchecking language from your identity
