Dictionary-based text auto-completion in Windows (i.e. Mozilla Thunderbird e-mail client)?

Most programmer's text editors and IDEs have it, automatic completion of the first few characters (letters) of a keyword or function name. Also, most address bars or search fields feature this (like the tag input below the posting form). I would like the same for a few, often-occuring words in business correspondance. Since I could not find an extension for the application in question, Mozilla Thunderbird, I would like to know if there are applications or methods that suggest the complete words from a dictionary like

sup
   per
   eruser
   erfluent

PS: Here's an article on Wikipedia: Word completion

Here's a product for $25: Type Booster

Ideally, the solution is free.

Finally, Typing Assistant and LetMeType which is GPL'ed and undeveloped since 2006, but supposedly also works on Windows 7.

LetMeType didn't do the trick for me, but I found AutoHotKey-based Texter and TypingAid (site down, download). For plenty of reviews, just google the application names.

TypingAid also made with AutoHotKey. – None – 2011-02-12T14:51:12.443

Here's the most recent version of TypingAid, in the AutoHotKey forum.
