Yes, I could.  However, I find that these types of checks
proliferate.  I already have checks for encryption and for
attachments.  I find that I often ignore the prompts and simply say yes
to everything which kind of makes it all pointless...  But that's me.

Anyway, as noted in another post in this thread, the beauty of Emacs is
that everybody can have the system work the way they like.  For me,
spell-checking while writing is what I like and I'm very happy with
flyspell.
