Hi all, I was able to workaround this problem by encoding a unique 'marker' in the binary part, then replacing the marker with the actual binary content after generating the MIME message.
See my answer on Stack Overflow http://stackoverflow.com/a/19033750/526098 for the code. Thanks, your suggestions helped me think of this.
