Spell Checking Your Email Messages
Please see page 158 to learn how to enable spell checking on the email messages you
type and send. The spell checker may not be turned on when you take your BlackBerry
out of the box the first time.
Working with Email Attachments
What makes your BlackBerry more than just another pretty smartphone are its serious
business capabilities. Often, emails arrive with important documents attached, such as
Microsoft Word files, Excel spreadsheets, or PowerPoint presentations. Fortunately, the
BlackBerry lets you open and view these attachments and other common formats (see
Table 12-1) wherever you might be.
