Another issue is that the binary stream that I send is only OK until it gets
to the first NULL, then the rest of the payload gets mangled. I noticed
someone had an issue like this in before but I couldn't find the mailing
list post that resolved the issue. This may stem from the wrong
"content-type" problem I am having. I am no HTTP expert though.

Do you think these two problems are related and do you know how I could
resolve them?

Thanks for your help.
