Chris, Thanks for answering.
Yes, it's email.mime.MIMEApplication. I've pasted a snippet with the imports below. I'm trying to use this to build a multi-part MIME message, with this as one part. I really can't figure out any way to attach a binary part like this to a multi-part MIME message without the encoding issue... any help would be greatly appreciate!
