| When adding or replacing a header with email.header.Header, folding of long lines will add a space after any semi-colon encountered in the string. Setting maxlinelen to something longer than the string (no folding required), no spaces are added after semi-colons. | ||

| The header folding algorithm is...not all that smart. There's a better one in the new policies in email in python3, which does not have this problem (it does have a few others, but the plan is to treat them as bugs and fix them :) IMO this isn't worth fixing in Python2, but if you want to propose a patch I'll review it. | ||

| David, if this was fixed in Python 3 as you say then this issue can be closed now. |
