Thanks, but no.  You can't even send an email properly.

 * Charset should be UTF-8, not the depreciated ISO-8859-1.

 * Your mail contained mostly ASCII characters, and yet you used base64
 encoding.  WTF?  A waste of bandwidth.  Use QP encoding, which is easy
 for anyone to read, with or without a mailreader that supports MIME.
 It also saves bandwidth.  See the MIME RFCs and submit a bug report to
 your email client vendor.

In the meantime, go find something that works.
