Re: Bakemoji in From header line for Japanese e-mail sent with PHP mb_send_mail

I've pasted my phpinfo() output below. The mbstring.language
does appear to be set correctly. (By the way, the PHP Core
section of phpinfo() says: default_charset, Shift_JIS, Shift_JIS.)

Can I ask what formatting is output by mbstring_send_mail?
Is it ISO-2022-JP?

Thanks
