Yeah I'm going to need a source on that one, as far as I know spellcheck only sends individual words not entire emails.

Thanks for improving my knowledge on how spellcheck works. Still, should I assume that a list of words cannot be kept? It sound to me like a naive assumption in the current landscape.

That’s the Standard spell checker. The Extended spell checker — optional and tells you it sends text to Google/Microsoft — is the one mentioned here.

You can just switch to the normal spell checker which is entirely offline and works off a word list.
