I am using Thunderbird 78.3.3 on MacOS 10.15.7. Is there a way to disable spell check in the original email (including headers) when replying or forwarding? Thanks,

Spell check is limited to the selected portion of a message if the check is applied manually (by clicking the Spelling button), but if 'Check spelling before sending' is enabled, I don't think the check can be set to bypass the original, quoted part.
