Outlook XP does not automatically suggest correct spelling even though I have
this option checked in the options tab of Tools.

Are you using Word as your editor?
That feature, for full function, requires Word.

Yes I get the red lines, and when I send the message, it automatically goes
to spellcheck, it just does not suggest correct spellings unless I tell it to
each time.

right-click on the red underlined words for suggestions.
If you want to run a full Spell-check before sending then look in Tools |
Options | Spelling tab .. "always check spelling before sending"

I have done this. The problem is that it won't suggest correct spelling
automatically even though I have this option checked. I have to force it
with each email.
