Does anyone use an email client that has decent autocorrect? I am a terrible typist who makes many similar mistakes over and over. In thunderbird, correcting my errors takes about 30-50% of my total message composition time. I know there are reasons to hate autocorrect, but in my case it's a big timesaver. Any suggestions?
I am also a trrible typist and on top of it a horrible speller. There was a great plugin for Thunderbird[0] but i hasn't been updated since 31. So now I just have the *Check spelling before sending* option checked. It should be in Options -> Composition -> Spelling. On a somewhat related note there are also some good command line utilities I like to use: * Bash's Shopt cdspell[1] will fix mistakes like `cd /etc/psotfix` automagically. * thefuck[1] correct the previous command like `aptget install python` to `apt-get install python`.
