A long before I ever looked up the code of mailsync I got a feeling that
one can use \ to escape characters (I had to use it to allow synchronize
#mh/ mailboxen). I believe that should do for spaces as well (Haven't
checked the code or tested, though).

Of course it doesn't mean that quoting should not be allowed as well.

I remember I had problems with disabling SSL (don't remember what the
problem was -- I think it insised on SSL if there was a listener set up
on remote host on the SSL port, but it is weird if it is so). I'd blame
it on c-client, anyway...
