This does create an Image object but the content is of type "plain/text" and the size is only 30 bytes (suspiciously close to the string length of the file specifier). Is it necessary to create the image object *and* upload the image data in two separate calls?

No.

Presumably "file" in the addImage method above contains the data stream but I cannot figure out how to access it (manage_upload(file) doesn't work).

Try 'file.read()'. 'file' will just return <class FileObject...> BTW, please don't sent HTML or RTF formatted messages to the list. -Michel
