This is a documentation error --- SJIS is certainly not a valid server
encoding (it's not 8-bit-safe). Will fix --- thanks for pointing it out.

I wonder if it would be worth changing the code so that you get a
complaint saying the encoding is known but not allowed on the server
side. It hasn't come up before, so maybe it's not worth the trouble
... but this message seems a bit confusing.
