I've already determined the exact cause and reported it here.

Tony's cut mark is delimited by a hard space instead of a soft space
.. an ASCII A0 instead of an ASCII 20.

Now, a 7 bit interpreter would mask that down to a 20 and treat it
as a soft space. Some other programs may do likewise. TB, being an 8
bit aware, multi-lingual mail program does not. Nor should it. It's
not the correct RFC delimiter. A space is a hex 20 character, not an
A0, although both *appear* to be spaces when viewed.

To correct this once and for all, Tony will have to ensure that the
hex A0 character that follows his cut mark is replaced with a hex 20
space character to comply with the RFC definition of a cut mark.
