I don't think that either unix or Mac OS X has a "native encoding". Some
things are handled in ascii, some other as UTF8, UTF16, or as a macintosh
encoding that depend of your preferred language in the international
system preference (ie, Mac roman, Mac japanese etc).
Whether you are sending messages or exporting them, PowerMail will use
the charset you have defined in the PowerMail preferences for each language.

If I recall correctly, PowerMail exports in tab delimited format using
the macintosh encoding of your preferred system language (in your case,
mac japanese).
