Not only. From time to time I see spaces missing between simple words in 
the subjects pane of the UI while the actual message does have the 
space, meaning TB wrongly removes spaces at the receiving end, not the 
sending end.

Received correctly. :)

In Rob's case I am not sure that the issue is due to TB eating selected 
spaces upon reception; my own TB (3.1.7), using ^U to display the raw 
message from Rob, shows missing spaces are actually in what was sent, 
and I think Wolfgang does not use TB at all.

Amicalement,
