eh. attached wrogn version, sorry. patch removes both leading and trailing whitespace from address and server fields. Bug 124170 is not affected -- it was not even previously possible to successfully enter leading whitespace to smtp server in the acct wizard.

Marking nsbeta1 because this can be very confusing to a user since they don't know to check for a blank space. Note: Problems also occur if an address is created in the address book followed by a blank space. Try sending a message with the "problem" address and it fails.
