Automatic language detection for spell checking

Hi everybody,

I wish Thunderbird could detect the language while I am writing an email. I am using three languages in a daily basis in my emails and in many cases I have to switch the spell checking language manually. This is what I would like to avoid. It is small nuance, but I hate to do it. I do not think it would be a huge computational overhead to do a spell check for a selected set of language and select the language which has the smallest number of spelling errors.

Is there any setting in thunderbird, or an add-on which could accomplish, what I wish to do?

Thanks, Zoltan
