Thunderbird & Ubuntu : Dictionarie for spellcheck

The XPI package for your language doesnt work?

Here is the solution, Thuderbird use the system’s dictionarie “myspell”, so you have to copy file in /usr/share/myspell/dicts/

Or just copy and paste with the good dictionary file you can find here:

http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Dictionaries 

wget http://ftp.services.openoffice.org/pub/OpenOffice.org/contrib/dictionaries/fr_FR.zip

sudo unzip fr_FR.zip -d /usr/share/myspell/dicts/

and just restart Thunderbird.
