echo imap_8bit($body));

but doesn't work for me i see this *$B$3$s$K$A$O!"$=$N$h$&$J

Answer 1

Since <ESC>$B is one of the primary control sequences in the JIS encodings, and your output begins *$B, it would appear that your data has come from that source. Try using mb_convert_encoding from JIS (or SJIS).

Edit: If you are potentially accepting Japanese from multiple encodings, you could look at the mb_detect_encoding function; making use of an appropriate encoding list.
