  I tracked down on this problem a little bit.  The problem is in
SyncMemo.pm, routine checkFiles.  The list of Memo files on the
workstation is constructed in a manner that does not allow for
spaces:

  $file = "$PREF->{gHomeDirectory}/*/*";
  @dirlist = eval "<$file>";

  A filename containing a space will therefore result in two entries
in @dirlist instead of one.

Regards,
Marc
