I've added a couple new settings to my JamNNTPd fork (https://github.com/cnb/jamnntpd/) that I hope will fix some of the issues with spaces and quotes.

- def_nonbsp (user parameter nonbsp) for replacing UTF-8 non-breaking spaces by regular spaces.

- def_delssq (user parameter delssq) for deleting stuffed space from quoted text (only in format=flowed).

(For now, both settings are off by default for backwards compatibility.)

With both enabled, Thunderbird seems to quote better: no NBSP crap, no extra spaces in quoted Origins or other lines with leading spaces...

You can check the changes to the source code here:
