Hi @SirLouen,
I've updated the PR per your feedback in comment #16:
1. Removed the line in `mock-mailer.php` that was forcing `$this->Encoding
= '8bit'`
2. Changed `wp_mail()` to clear the encoding property
(`$phpmailer->Encoding = ''`) instead of defaulting to 8bit
3. Updated the unit test to expect empty encoding for short messages,
matching PHPMailer's natural behavior
The test now passes. Thanks for the detailed guidance!
