Spelling problem

[Papagalou Foteinh]

Hello,

I have spent a lot of time trying to find out why the spell checker isn't
working properly, and I came to the following conclusion: the error exists
at the point where IMP calls the external progam (ispell for example)
which returns an array of the words that need checking. This array, when
viewed from IMP, contains words that are not always the same as the ones
ispell really returned, but omits some letters from some words.

For example, in the sentence "this is a wrongg sentense", instead of
returning "wrongg" and "sentense", it may return "wrongg" and "senten".

So when IMP then tries to match the words of the message with these words,
the match failes between "sentense" and "senten", so IMP displays the word
"sentense" as being correct.

Is this a problem of PHP? Do you know if it has been fixed in earlier
version?

I am using:

IMP version 2.2.3
PHP version 4.0.4pl1

Thank you
