The mobi format has so many problems with formatting due to limitations in the format itself they are probably just happy to read something. Personally I put in spaces most of the time to aid the reader in parsing a line. Depending on the use I sometimes put a space on both sides and sometimes set up the clause with a space ahead of the mdash at the start of the clause and a space after it at the end. This way the mdash behaves like a () or "" kind of punctuation.
