[SOLVED]firefox/thunderbird spell checker and the mass of languages

Hey guys,

I'm looking for a possibility to remove some entries from the spell checker language selection. Even without any extra language pack installed, there are about 15 different English version available.  I have to write emails in more than 3 different languages per day, so it takes about 5 seconds to find the right one in the big list. So any one knows a "hack" or addon that can hide or remove some of these entries, so i can leave the 7 important ones i really need? I want to use the precompiled from the official repo, but if only compile from source will do it im fine with it.

thanks in advance.

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.
