The following message is a courtesy copy of an article
that has been posted to gmane.linux.debian.devel.emacsen as well.

all I can find in
http://jidanni.org/comp/emacs.txt
http://jidanni/jidanni.org/comp/gnus_el.txt
are
(setq dabbrev-case-replace nil)
(setq dabbrev-abbrev-char-regexp "\\sw\\|\\s_") ;try it
(setq flyspell-use-global-abbrev-table-p t);hush up its bug

However, I notice today I'm not having the problem, ...ah ha, until I
type
internet ESC TAB,
whereupon flyspell-auto-correct-word make is become
interned
and furthermore, from then on, any typing of "internet SPC" will end
up with "interned".

Perhaps intentional, but too much like Outlook2000 looking out for me
or whatever.

I see, I don't want flyspell-auto-correct-word to make it an
auto-abbrev for the rest of the file or something, even if is OK once.
