Just set up Thunderbird and the spelling in outgoing emails is not being checked. How do I set it up so spell check?

You can setup Thunderbird to check spelling as you type: Menu location: Tools > Options > Composition > Spelling

Alternatively, you can tell Thunderbird to check spelling before sending with the same menu location.

You can check spelling on the fly by pressing Ctrl+Shift+P in the Compose window.
