Improve Your Email Game with built-in Spell Check and AI Tools

Using Spell Check in eM Client

When you compose an email, eM Client will check your spelling in real time and underline any errors it finds. You can then right-click on each word and choose from a list of suggestions to replace the incorrectly spelled word.

To turn this feature on, go to Settings > General > Spell-Checker and check the "Use automatic spell-checker" option.

eM Client: Settings

You have the option to choose the language for spell-checking. This setting can automatically adjust based on the eM Client’s app language, which you can change in Settings > General > Language. Alternatively, it can also switch based on your keyboard language, which you can configure in your system’s keyboard settings.

Additionally, it is possible to download dictionaries of more than 40 different languages that can be then chosen as the spell-checker’s language.

In case you want to check all of your grammar at one time, right before you send the email, you can turn on the "Check spelling before sending message" feature.

To do that, go to Settings > Mail, then head to the "Compose" section and turn on the "Check spelling before sending message" feature.

eM Client: Settings

Once spellcheck is enabled, you will be alerted to any misspellings after clicking "Send". A window will appear allowing you to correct or ignore errors before clicking "Send" again to send the email.

If you are a Mac user, it's important to know that the autocorrect and autocompletion settings from your Mac will be carried over to the eM Client desktop app. If you want to use the spell-checking features in eM Client, ensure that your Mac's autocorrect settings are enabled. Conversely, if you prefer not to use these features, make sure they are turned off.
