whats with the weird tag on this thread?
%20 is an escaped form of the space character. Some mail
programs escape all control characters, or even anything
like {} ~.
Yes but "%20" is the form of escape intended for use with http, not for email.
For email, it should be "=20" and if such escaped characters are included in a
subject line, this is supposed to be indicated by the subject field starting
with a sequence like "=?charset?Q?" to flag the use of what is called quoted
printable encoding.
