When I try to write an email, many of the words get highlighted as if spelled wrong. They are not wrong

This doesn't happen when I use the internet explorer browser, only when I use Mozilla. This also happens when I reply to an email, not just on new emails. If I use spell check, it finds no wrong words and the lines do not go away. This is very distracting as it is very hard to tell the misspelled words from those that I have correctly spelled.

Firefox doesn't do email. Some webmail websites use their own spellcheck which overrides that which is in Firefox.

Another thing, if you aren't using the 'en-US localization of Firefox, did you install the correct dictionary for your locale?
