gnus-ifile category names with spaces

Hi,

some of my mail folder names contain spaces. Ifile doesn't like spaces
in category names. So I made a quick ugly hack to make it work with
ifile-gnus: Replace all spaces with '%20'. It would be nice to use a
more robust encoding some day, maybe real url-encoding. Patch
attached.

Comments appreciated.

     Goodbyte, Gerd.

P.S.: I recreated my .idata like this:

zsh% ifile -r
zsh% cd ~/Mail && find * -type f -name .overview | sed -e 's/\/.overview$//' | while read i; do ifile -v2 -i "$(echo $i | sed -e 's,/,.,g' -e 's/ /%20/g')" $i/*; done

`mm-url-form-encode-xwfu' will do URL encoding...
