There is no spell checker included in the default installation of the SL
Thunderbird2 or the old dict is not compatible to thudnerbird 2. To work with the spell check, you need to install the dict from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/browse/type:3 ?

1.) This bug is for TB 1.5, not 2.0
2.) the dictionary from the link does not work, it complains, that is is not compatible (it claims it works with TB 2.x, but not 1,5)

Since 2.0 is out, upgrade to that. 1.5 will get only possible security fixes.
