No, I meant what I said.  If "foo bar" is encoded as "foo<CRLF> bar"
(only a line break is inserted, before the existing space), then it
will be decoded as "foo bar", according to RFC822.  If it is encoded
instead as "foo<CRLF>  bar" (a line break and a space are inserted),
then it will be decoded as "foo  bar".

Yes, there should be only one space there, according to the RFC.
