RE: HTTP_URL_POST not working

["Smith, Mike" <Mike_Smith@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Scott, 
I did not realize that pasting the url to an email and clicking on it
resulted in a GET request.
  
I do believe I want the HTTP_URL_POST() as I am sending data to the
vendor.  
I will see if I can get Wireshark to compare against the HTTPAPI debug
file.

Hi Mike,

When you paste a link into an E-mail, then click that link, you are
performing a GET request.  However, you say that you're calling
HTTP_URL_POST() from HTTPAPI.

Did you mean to use HTTP_url_get() instead?

You ask for "anything else that you can use to diagnose this problem". 
My suggestion is to get Wireshark to see what the PC apps are sending
and compare that against the HTTPAPI debug file.
