This means that there's an error in the "SOAPAction:" keyword that's 
sent to the HTTP server.  Here's the relevant part of your log file:

>    User-Agent: http-api/1.22
>    Content-Type: text/xml
> 
>    Content-Type:
>    text/xml
>    SOAPAction:
>    [3]http://www.webserviceX.NET/ConversionRate
>    Expect:
>    100-continue
>    Content-Length:

>    SOAPAction:
>    [4]http://www.webserviceX.NET/ConversionRate

I'm a bit confused by this.  I'm guessing that the extra linefeeds and 
the [4] were inserted by your e-mail software.

But why are Content-Type and SOAPAction listed twice?  Clearly, that 
will cause confusion.  You aren't supposed to list these HTTP keywords 
twice.  I can't think of any code in HTTPAPI that would do that, and it 
doesn't happen to me when I run EXAMPLE18-20...

So I'm not exactly sure what it could be?  Why would those keywords be 
repeated?   Also, it looks like there's a blank line after your first 
Content-type....  this would cause major problems as blank lines are 
supposed to indicate the end of the list of headers.

Is anyone else having this problem?   I'm not sure what to look for...
