I'm using nnimap-0.98 wit pgnus-0.48.
One can keep the IMAP server authentication details in a file formatted
like .netrc, and nnimap gets that file parsed by gnus-parse-netrc.
The administrator of our mail server found it necessary
(against all better IT experience ...)
to use our real life names (first name and surname) separated
by exactly a space character (0x20).
But a two parted `login name' is something I don't know how to get correctly parsed there.
Maybe somebody can shed some light on this issue.

Would
... login "my name" ...
be valid .netrc syntax? If so, I can alter gnus-parse-netrc to allow
that.
