I added a misspelled word to the spell check for apple's Mail. Does anyone know how to remove it? I know it seems like a dumb question, but I've looked through the preferences and don't see anything. The only thing I can think of is to remove some Library file.

Thank You.
 
That's a good question. I went searching and could not find where you can edit the dictionary for mail.

I did find how to edit in Appleworks.
 
/home/Library/Spelling/en
you can open this file with textedit. I don't know if just deleting an 'incorrect' word can be saved with textedit as a file that will continue to work with AppleSpell. (AppleSpell is the system tool that is being used when a spellcheck is called for, and is not specific to just Mail)
