Hello Surabaya, if you send binary with LineMode there are many way to manage it.
The simplest : use BASE64 e-mail attachement style that is nice as designed to work ascii lined mode but increase size of data about +40% (as all binary e-mail attachements do by the way). You could also send binary but then you should take care to backslash all delimiter characters/bytes. You can also temporary switch between lined mode and binary mode : if line mode ON and receive string "bin 1223435" then LineMode OFF and receive data until size = 1223435 then LineMode ON again.
