"Language" error message in Windows Mail

Hello,

I'm running Windows Vista Home Premium, and when I attempted to run the
spell checker in Windows Mail for the first time I got the following message:
"This language is no longer available for spell checking. Please select
another in the spelling options dialog". My problem is that I can't figure
out how to access the spelling options dialog window, and the help section of
Windows Mail makes no mention of a spelling options dialog. Any
help/suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks.
