Howdy,

Picked this up from the CocoAspell web site, <http://cocoaspell.leuski.net>. It's old but probably correct and sounds just like what is being experienced.

***********
January 12, 2009. If you are upgrading from cocoAspell 2.0.4 to cocoAspell 2.1 you may occasionally observe that some correctly spelled words are marked as misspelled. This is caused by a minor incompatibility between dictionaries compiled with aspell 0.60.5 and 0.60.4. I'd suggest you reinstall the dictionary directory in /Library/Application Support/cocoAspell. For the English dictionary that comes with cocoAspell, you should remove aspell6-en-6.0-0 folder and run the cocoAspell installer again.
***********

Make sure you install version 2.1; available at that site.

Good Luck,

Herb Schulz
