I don't, but thunderbird displays the original with a reasonable layout
so it is fairly clear that a space was typed in the right places. But,
I have no idea why they aren't in the plain text version - whether the
sender's mailer is just broken or they were munged in some subsequent
character set conversion as mailing lists are prone to do. In any case,
tolerance seems like the right approach.
