Sorry I was investigating,  since  it is a talk troubled by Japanese people.

I think  it is JIS code (ISO-2022-JP).

Some of  microsoft email servers can handle both JIS and utf8.
And many mailers can read both JIS and utf8 now.

But JIS will be continue to use permanently at least EMAILs for Japanse 
characters.

Other hand,  the number of  UTF8 Japanse WEB sites is going to increases,
because of  increaseing php.  PHP group determined utf8 as standard, not 
EUC-JP.
