[Bug 1275816] [NEW] Thunderbird doesn't display multiple consecutive spaces in subject line

[EliCoten]

Public bug reported:

If a message comes in with a subject line that contains two consecutive
spaces, when the subject line is displayed in the message window, the
spaces are removed.

E.g. if an email has a subject "Long   Space", Thunderbird would display
it as "Long Space".

almost certainly related.
