One more glitch: What's happening now is that all words that are not German
are shown as incorrect. Despite English (USA) being selected as default
language for spell checking in systemsettings and in the composing window's
settings -> spell check settings. I had to open this dialog and open the
dropdown list, without selecting anything else than the already selecting
English (USA), and then all is fine.
But there's a third setting, in Settings -> Configure KMail -> Identities ->
Edit -> Extras -> Dictionary, and there I had German. When this is set to
English, too, it's working as expected.
Oh, and when I start typing a message with Kopete, spell checking first
worked, and suddenly stopped. But this looks like a feature, once you type
too many incorrect words, spell checking is turned off automatically.
Although it is still selected in the menu.
