I felt optimistic, so I'm going to install the patch below (as soon as
bzr.sv.gnu.org comes back to life),

When I send a big mail using smtpmail, I get:

Sending email
Sending email12%
Sending email85%
Sending email87%
Sending email90%

SPC is needed between text and percentage, I think.  Is what
should be fixed `progress-reporter-do-update', or should every
program that uses `make-progress-reporter' add SPC to the first
argument?
