Please read my e-mails more carefully.

As said in <4A2A4666.6030403 at stroeder.com> it's the raw binary JPEG
image data.

Send the binary data directly. Don't try to (implicitly) convert
entry['jpegPhoto'][0] to a Unicode object. You might want to learn a bit
more about normal strings vs. Unicode objects, string coercion and how
to interpret exceptions like the one above before going any further.

Ciao, Michael.
