Further to allister, if the here string in your Shell (whatever that is) had not appended a linefeed (thereby making the 4th character) the "wc" command would have seen nothing because it expects correctly formatted text files.

If you needed the answer three, you would have to subtract one from the result to eliminate count for the linefeed character.

mb_encode_mimeheader - Encode string for MIME header

SYNOPSIS
string m0],n[int_m$indent]) (string $str, [string $charset = mb_internal_encoding()], [string $transfer_encoding = "B"], [string $line- feed = " DESCRIPTION
Encodes a given string$str by the MIME header encoding scheme. PARAMETERS
o $str - The string being encoded. o $charset -$charset specifies the name of the character set in which $str is represented in. The default value is determined by the current NLS setting ( mbstring.language). mb_internal_encoding(3) should be set to same encoding. o $transfer_encoding -$transfer_encoding specifies the scheme of MIME encoding. It should be either "B" (Base64) or "Q" (Quoted-Printable). Falls back to "B" if not given. o $linefeed -$linefeed specifies the EOL (end-of-line) marker with which mb_encode_mimeheader(3) performs line-folding (a RFC term, the act of breaking a line longer than a certain length into multiple lines. The length is currently hard-coded to 74 characters). Falls back to " " (CRLF) if not given. o $indent - Indentation of the first line (number of characters in the header before $str). RETURN VALUES
A converted version of the string represented in ASCII. EXAMPLES
Example #1 mb_encode_mimeheader(3) example <?php $name = ""; // kanji $mbox = "kru"; $doma = "gtinn.mon"; $addr = mb_encode_mimeheader($name, "UTF-7", "Q") . " <" . $mbox . "@" . $doma . ">"; echo $addr; ?> NOTES
Note This function isn't designed to break lines at higher-level contextual break points (word boundaries, etc.). This behaviour may clutter up the original string with unexpected spaces. SEE ALSO
