Spellcheck

It's possible to install extra languages for Evolution through the aspell-* packages:

• Find the name of the language pack you want through a search on the packages database (e.g. aspell-da for danish)

• Install the package:

sudo apt-get install aspell-da

• Voila! You might have to restart Evolution in order for it to recognize it.

You can find the spellchecking option under Edit -> Preferences -> Composer Preferences -> Spell Checking
