Description Rod Nayfield 2004-03-30 18:11:38 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.2.1)
OS:          Linux

There was a similar request marked as resolved in the past.  This request is not resolved by as-you-type spell checking.


The request is for a "force full spell check" option which the user can configure.

When this option is selected, it in effect replaces the send or queue action with spell-then-send.

The only difference between spell-then-send and spell (tools>spelling...) is that the "Finished" option sends the message, as does fixing the last error.

Cancel would return the user to the unsent message. (same behavior)
No errors found would just send the message.

This doesn't seem too hard to implement as it really barely changes from the existing spelling dialog.  

The option could be used for someone who doesn't want to use as-you-type but still wants to spell.  They may want to 'add to dictionary' or use the 'ignore/replace all' or just have a word-by-word check (instead of glancing to see if all the red words are "OK").

This is an option in a heavily-deployed mail application from the northwest US.

Thank you for your feature request. Kmail1 is currently unmaintained so we are closing all wishes. Please feel free to reopen a feature request for Kmail2 if it has not already been implemented.
Thank you for your understanding.

Instead of creating a new feature request, please confirm here if the wishlist is still valid for kmail2.

I think this is still valid and should be implemented in Kmail2. MS Outlook has this feature and if you are used to using that you would expect it in Kmail.
