Spell checking - why can't I avoid it?

Can someone explain why the emails I write are still spell-checked, even though I have unchecked "Check spelling before sending message" and "Check spelling continuously" in "Settings" countless times? Even the Thunderbird add-on "Replywithheader" still checks spelling, even though I have unchecked "spell-check" there too. I don't want spell-checking, but I can't get away from it! It really bothers me.

Restart Thunderbird. Does it still have the desired settings?

Helpful?

I have restarted Thunderbird several times. Still the same. My emails are still spell-checked, although the settings are set so that they should be unchecked.

Helpful?
