Ispell is better. Write, then spell, then send. Do it
all at once you loose your mindfulness and the result
will suffer. Flyspell sounds good but in practice too
many words that should be there aren't, which means
correct words will pop up as incorrect or unknown all
the time while typing. This is when the brain should
not focus on spelling but on conveying a message from
one person to another. The fingers should do the
spelling and in time they will. For the occasional
mistake spellcheck just before send is a much
better idea.
