Email in base64 get's through untranslated

A while back I tried ping.fm. I set up the account, did a status update and all is fine. Then I tried the email to status functionality, which is a cool idea because I could just send emails of my phone.
I wrote a little status on my Sony Ericsson and hit send. a couple of minutes later all my statuses were updated. Great.
Wait a minute; not so great. Apparently my phone sends email encoded a base64, which is not so uncommon. The problem is; ping.fm does not decode this message properly.
