I'm forced to use Outlook at work, and I have a couple of questions about the spell checker. The option of not using the spell checker is an option, but my spelling is so sufficiently bad that it's probably a better idea to use it…
-
Is it possible to get Outlook to just underline misspelled words as I type them, like every other application on the planet? My options appear to be no spell check, manual spell check, or automatically spell check as I hit send and ask me about every word it doesn't know.
-
In case the 1st isn't an option, is it possible to tell the spell checker something like "if it has punctuation in it, treat it as a valid word"? I'm a programmer, so if a word has punctuation in it, there's a REALLY good chance that it's something like
foo.py
orget_cksum()
and I don't need that to be spellchecked…

Taken from how to disable auto spell checking. I assume doing the opposite will enable it. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/937422
