What email client or web browser did you use?

It depends to the app you want to check the spelling.
Some apps need hunspell or aspell, in addition you need to install a
dictionary, other apps require enchant.

You should install enchant, hunspell, hunspell-en, aspell,
aspell-en, replace "-en" with the language you need.

For example firefox, icecat, qupzilla, tor-browser-en,
palemoon, yudit require hunspell, but e.g. mc requires aspell.
Enchant is required by abiword, claws-mail, gedit, gtkhtml4,
gtkspell, kdelibs, pluma, webkit2gtk, xchat and others.

I suspect you are using Claws Mail 3.9.0 (GTK+ 2.24.20;
x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu)? When sending a request to the Xfce list you
should at least mention that you use Linux,if so, better is to mention
the distro.
