           Summary: Spellchecker does not work in Kmail
           Product: kontact
           Version: 4.4.5
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: mail
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: gkourtev at gmail.com


Version:           4.4.5 (using KDE 4.5.0) 
OS:                Linux

After the upgrade to 4.5.0 (and later 4.5.1), the spell checker in Kmail
started not to underline misspelled words. Automatic spell checker is enabled
under the Tools menu. 

In order to make it work, I have to open on each new message the Spellchecker
in Setting tab, to choose the language and then to press OK. After that I see
the red lines under words with incorrect spelling. However, this solves the
problem with the particular message, not in general.

I am using three languages on my machine -- English, French and Bulgarian.  The
case is with each of the them.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open new message.
2. Type in the body. Wrong words are not underlined
3. Open Settings--> Spellchecker
4. Choose language. Press OK.
5. Wrong words are underlined

Actual Results:  
The spellchecker in Kmail starts to work for this particular new message.

Expected Results:  
I expect the spellchecker to check while I type and to underline in red
misspelled words.
