Thank you, I nearly forgot about this option but my question went a little deeper. Is the SL FF 3.6-8 the same as general FF 3.6.4 or 3.6.6 (newest)? "About" FF says: Red Hat/3.6-8.el5 Firefox/3.6.4 so - is the version safe (the -8 suffix) or should I (we) ask for 3.6.6 SL package (3.6-9.el5....?) as Mozilla (parent company) presses for the changes in FF use due to safety issues? > Sylpheed is not part of Scientific Linux, but the dag or rpmforge > repository, so this is not the right place to ask your question about > it. Please ask your question about sylpheed on their mailling list. OK, but I found Dag repo on SL FTPs http://ftp1.scientificlinux.org/linux/extra/dag/redhat/el5/en/x86_64/RPMS.dag/ I understand it was put there just for our convenience. Anyway, I asked Mr Dag Wieërs about the lack of spell-checker option and now I wait for his replay. Thank you for your help.
