I turned on CURLOPT_VERBOSE and you're right. The MKD commands do not
escape spaces and everything works fine. So I isolated the code that
sends the quote commands and tried again:

    struct curl_slist *headers = NULL;

    char mkdir[] = "MKD folder with spaces";

    headers = curl_slist_append(headers, mkdir);

    curl_easy_setopt(handle, CURLOPT_QUOTE, headers);

    result = curl_easy_perform(handle);

...works just fine. I guess the problem was elsewhere in my code.

Thanks
Nick
