Claws-mail. How to configure aspell ? [SOLVED]

Hi

I am using claws-mail 3.5.0-2 and have downloaded aspell 0.60.6-2 using pacman.  I need your help to understand how to configure Spell Check.

The claws-mail configuration setup shows me:

Preferences
   Compose
      Spell Checking
           x  Enable spell checker

It suggests   /usr/lib/aspell   and this folder shows me /usr/lib which contains aspell  and aspell-0.60 but inside I can't see anything that looks like a dictionary.

What am I missing?  Should I have to download antother program?  Which one?

Thanks for your time.

Re: Claws-mail. How to configure aspell ? [SOLVED]

Hello

Some progress has been done after getting a message from a friend telling me I should have to pacman -Ss aspell and so I did, installing aspell-en but now I am getting the this message when calling message editor:

WARNING
The spell checker could not change dictionary.
No word lists can be found for the language "none".

Disregarding this warning the message editor is called and I can see, in red, any mistaken English word I type, so it seems to working on the fly, but I wish to fix such warning message.

Thanks

Fixed!

The problem has been fixed.  I should have to configure the dictionary information also inside each e-mail account and not only the preferences for the dictionary use.

Thanks.

Don't know if this will help but my path to dictionaries is as follows

/usr/lib/aspell-0.60/

and I have options to choose the various dictionaries.

Thank you, Whompus.  I haven't figured out that I should download aspell-en package as well but now everything has been fixed.
