When replying to an email, this text is prepended to the original message:
"$FROM wrote:"

The text of $FROM should not be spell checked. It is a name, and thus often not a dictionary word. Furthermore, it will never be corrected.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Reply to an email
2.Click "spell check"

Actual Results:  
Tbird checks the name of the sender.

Expected Results:  
Tbird would ignore the name of the sender.
