Thanks for the Nox Spell recommendation - I disabled Google Spell for the same reason David commented on, and though some of my servers I have pspell installed, this is a good alternative. So I'd throw my hat in the ring for pspell integration as well - I've used it in many a in house app we have and client apps, I'll look through the code and see if one of my developers can pop pspell in.

Hi there,

as far as I understood it from the FAQ spellchecking is done by sending the complete message to a Google server. Is this correct?

Right. Of course you can disable it.

Don't you have any privacy concerns? In a professional environment it's not acceptable to have potentially sensitive information sent to some third party. (If done so, this should at least be clearly advertised.)

It's up to those who implement RoundCube to be concerned and to advertise the users. We're just trying to keep the requirements for the PHP environment as low as possible and Google's spell checking is a good way to provide this functionality on a $4.99 hosting box.

Are there any plans to implement a "local" spellcheck (e.g. by using PHP's pspell bindings)?

As an an alternative, you can use the Nox Spell Server which provides the same interface as Google Spell. See 'spellcheck_uri' in config/main.inc.php

Also, everybody is welcome to contribute code that implements ans other spell checking solution with RoundCube...
