I don't catch up news.software.nntp(over 800 arts unread),
but no one proposed quoting spaces by '\'?

I think this is somewhat work around to avoid the problem,
so I don't have a special opinion on this.  And I'd like someone,
it's ok if it's me :), also to implement more generic method
to fix this(including protocol definition).

}   encapsulate the check?

Perhaps, it'd be.
