base64 is the encoding normally used in email for carrying attachments
such as images - it is used to re-code a binary file to a
representation in alpha-numeric characters allowing it to be emailed as
text.

It is not 'encrypted' in the secret sense and can be decoded - have a
google for 'base64 decode' - algorithms and code samples are out there.

as to why you are getting this in your code I can't answer - i don't
know PHP
