I have configured flyspell like this:

(setq flyspell-abbrev-p t)
(setq flyspell-use-global-abbrev-table-p t)

I'm german, when I have a word like "autobaahn" flyspell suggests 
"Autobahn", when I accept the suggestion, flyspell puts the word in the 
global-abbrev-table and saves it. Next time I write "autobaahn" the word 
is corrected automatically to "Autobahn"

P.S. You can edit the abbrev-table and set your preferred 
auto-corrections per hand if you like.

Regards
Thorsten
