Combining Christopher's idea with something I found on the internet,
putting the following in my .emacs opens sup buffers with
flyspell-mode enabled. Warning, flyspell checks all the text in the
buffer before letting you work, so if you are quoting a really long
chain of emails, this can take a few seconds.
;; flyspell stuff
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist
'("sup\\.\\(compose\\|forward\\|reply\\|resume\\)-mode$" . mail-mode))
(setq mail-mode-hook (quote (#[nil "\300\301!\207" [flyspell-mode 1] 2] flyspell-buffer mail-mode-hook-identify)))
