[MS Proofing Tools]

CustomDict=<keyname>

This entry gives the name of an entry in the [MS Proofing Tools] section of your WIN.INI file. That entry in turn gives the fully qualified path to a file containing your custom dictionary. The custom dictionary contains spellings not found in the standard dictionary, which you have added using the Add button in the Spelling Check dialog box.

There is no default value. The purpose of this entry is to let Mail take advantage of a custom dictionary you may have already created with another Microsoft application, such as Word for Windows.

There is no default value. The purpose of this entry is to let Mail use the same spelling checker you may already be using with another Microsoft application, such as Word for Windows.
