At Peter's request, this is a re-submit of the patch from 1 August 2002.

This patch removes a + " " that a recent patch started appending to the
prefix string.  The " " was appended because the author wanted to place a
space between the prefix and the subject.  By default, whitespace is trimmed
from body content of elements in the config.xml file, so simply putting a
trailing space in config.xml didn't work.  However, by simply adding
xml:space="preserve", one can change that behavior.  The javadoc has been
updated to document this technique to preserve whitespace.

The following mailet provides a trivial example:

<mailet match="RecipientIs=test@domain" class="Redirect">
    <recipients>user1@domain, user2@domain</recipients>
    <to>list@domain</to>
    <sender>owner@domain</sender>
    <message>sent on from James</message>
    <inline>unaltered</inline>
    <replyto>postmaster</replyto>
    <prefix xml:space="preserve">[test mailing] </prefix>
<!--        ------- this -------    keeps this ^  -->
    <static>TRUE</static>
    <passThrough>FALSE</passThrough>
</mailet>

Note the use of the xml:space attribute on the <prefix> tag.
