No visual notice of incorrectly spelled words is given. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install latest nightly 2. Compose new message 3. Enter incorrectly spelled words Actual Results: Compose window does not mark text with red underlines Expected Results: Misspelled words should be flagged with red underlines Words that are misspelled are still caught by Mail if spell check is invoked upon send, so program is apparently catching them, just not flagging them while typing.
