Turns out the problem was with the Gentoo ebuild. Gentoo Linux uses source
code packages and builds them to a custom spec on the target box. The
configure option "--with-ispell" without a path, which Gentoo uses to build
the package, causes courier to build without spellchecking, whereas
configuring without this option allows the build to find the spellchecker if
it's present on the system. "--with-ispell" always requires a path as part
of the option. II posted a bug report and a patch on Gentoo's bugzilla site
but need to refine it further and post again.

I've installed courier w. sqwebmail on a 2nd server here (it's already
running successfully on another of my servers). The Linux distribution on
the new server is gentoo and courier was installed using the gentoo ebuild
for the full courier package. In most respects, it's working quite well.
On Debian i compile sqwebmail with this option:
--with-ispell=/usr/bin/aspell
and with install aspell and aspell-it i can check the spelling of messages
during "Compose of message".
