LG He has one. Right below his name.

LG Tagline of the day:
LG First things first, but not necessarily in that order.

But it appears that the space after the -- is being discarded when
the following are used to create or reply to a message:
   Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-2
or
   Content-Type: text/plain; charset=Windows-1250
and the RTF viewer is used.

The signature, tagline, etc. appear as black and not silver color
and the space is not there. But when the source is viewed (via F9) the
space is there. Is it just a problem with the RTF viewer? Or my
settings?

LG Hmmm. I'm thinking it's on your settings. His shows up as grey as does
LG mine and yours.

LG How does your cut mark look when you view your own message?

It's grey as is should be.  And so is your's as long as your message
is:
   Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
as shown by F9.

Hmmm. I'll tinker with the settings, send some messages to myself to
conserve list bandwith, and see what develops.

LG Hmmm. I know I haven't changed any of my charsets. I wonder what's
LG going on.

I don't know how to correct it, but I now know what triggers the
missing space in the cut mark.  Any message that has:
   Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
when viewed in the Rich Text viewer will not display the space.

I took a good message with: Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit,
displayed the source with F9, copied it to a text editor, changed the
7bit to quoted-printable, saved it as a x.eml, imported into TheBat
and the space was not displayed in the Rich Text viewer.

I did the converse, took a message that had
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable, used F9, copied the
source into a text editor, changed quoted-printable to 7bit, saved
it as y.eml, imported into TheBat and the space was displayed and
everything below the --  was grey.

Even Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit displays correctly. So it
appears that Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable triggers
the undesirable behavior. I changed every setting I could think of and
nothing changed this Rich Text viewer behavior.

What triggers TheBat to use Content-Transfer-Encoding:
quoted-printable in a message?

I even set ACCOUNT PROPERTIES - MAIL MANAGEMENT to as
Quoted-printable and all of my messages still use 7bit.

Anyone else seeing this behavior in the Rich Text viewer?
