No spelling suggestions in the right-click menu (New Outlook for Windows)

Split from this thread.

I have had the same issue, but I have the Office 365 Outlook app actually loaded on my computer.

It happened when I switched to the new view of Outlook. I am ready to switch back to the old view due to this feature not working. I use it all the time.

It shows the spelling error, but does not provide spelling suggestions in the right click pop up menu.

I checked the editor settings and these are all turned on. I also restarted the application.

    Spell check is accessed by left click not right click.

    Same issues for me with no spelling correction. however open you new message in a new window and it works fine. Right click on the highlighted text and its shows options to slect.

    Still a major fault with the softwre

    Good try but i have those setting turned on and the spelling suggestions still don't work. This is a big nuisance.

    Another workaround is to open the e-mail you are composing in a separate window. Use the pop-out icon in the upper right corner of the e-mail message.

    When displayed in a separate window, you should see the spelling suggestions when you right-click an incorrectly spelled word.
