crap

My Diccionario del español de Cuba lists for empingue:

Sentimiento de irritación, malhumor o cólera

For "de pinga"

Ref. a un asunto: difícil de tratar or de resolver

So for the whole thing, maybe:
Shit, I don't know why I can't send an IM. I've got this crap that isn't easy, Write me back if you got this e-mail.

irritation / tremendous frustration / anger



I totally agree with Lydia; I just wanted to answer the question with a noun, just as the original.

"de pinga no se porque no puedo mandarte un IM tengo un enpingue que no es facil.escriveme para atras si resivistes este email."

My suggestion would then be (in modern teen language with all those incredibly misspelled words, no punctuation and no capital words):

"fuck i dont know why i cant IM u. got this fucking irritation its getting hard. write me back if u get this email."
