At work I use Outlook and it has great fun with the names of some of my 
staff (i.e. Glenda = gland).  I avoid pointing it out to them 
though.  Spell checkers are set up to bypass common names (John, Bob, 
etc.).  R&R isn't common.  BTW you can tell Eudora to ignore words with 
mixed case (among other things) and the goofy suggestions will stop.  Go to 
<Tools>, <Options> and scroll down to Spell Check.  Of course if you're 
amused by them...
