Why doesn't Thunderbird underline misspelled words so that the spell checker can suggest alternatives?

I can't activate spell checker because there are no misspelled words underlined, when I know that there are.

To enable underlining of incorrectly spelt words as you type: 'Tools' > 'Options' > 'Composition' > 'Spelling' tab or 'Menu icon' > 'Options' > 'Options' > 'Composition' > 'Spelling' tab

select : 'Enable spell check as you type' click on OK


However, you do not have to have this enabled in order to use Spellcheck. Click on 'Spelling' in the toolbar, it will open a small window offering potential spelling corrections for mispelt words.
