Description

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Compose new e-mail
  2. Look for the function "Spell check"

Actual results:
The button "Spell" to conduct the spell check is located in the function bar above the field "From".

Expected results:
Two of my participants were looking for the function "Spell check" in the grey bar above the text field containing the formatting options so maybe the function should be offered there rather than above the field "From" which is further afar from the text that is actually checked.

My participants had the same problem. They also didn't connect the spell check options to the "wand" icon because they are not grouped accordingly.

An icon is one thing we have a ticket about. The other thing is button position. It is placed in the toolbar for consistency. When you don't use HTML editor, you don't have the text editor toolbar above the textarea.
