This has been implemented in CVS HEAD (IMP 4.2) a while ago.

Maybe it's not that complex to implement this feature. But the point 
is that the spell checking code is such a mess at the moment, that I 
don't really want to accept any major changes to that code.

I have taken a look at the code and from my point of view it is only a 
matter of:



1.- Understanding the compose.php and how the pop-up page is created. 
It can then be modified to add the selection item that I suggested  in 
my original email.



The first version could list all the options. The limitation on the 
number of available languages could came in a later stage. It might 
involve changes in the options / setup that for sure are not trivial.



2.- Changing spelling.php to use the new language selected in the 
compose page.



I guess that it will not take me more than one week (dedication after 
normal working hours) to implement a new version.



My problem is that I would like the code to be part of the 
distribution. In the case that the idea is to re-write all the 
spelling code ... I have no time.



Let me know ....

It *is* actually complex and probably won't happen before the complete 
refactoring of the spell checking code. This has been planned for 
years now, but no developer felt motivated enough to do this so far.

Dear sirs,



First let me thank you for the glorious work you have done with horde. I

am just impressed !!!



I only miss one option in imp: to select the language for the spell-checker

in the email-composition window. It can be done by changing the "locale"

settings, but it is not convenient at all. In my case most of my users write

emails in various languages, including English, Spanish and German. It

is very common to write in a single session in different languages.



I read the code, and from what I can see I think that it should not be very

complex to add a selection field in the compose window. In order to avoid

a big list with all the available languages a section in the imp 
options could be created to limit the number of displayed lines.



Kind regards.
