That was exactly it!

I knew it must be something really silly that I'm overseeing.

Would it be good to mention this on the Wiki? I could imagine others having similar issues.

It might be good also to allow the control of keepalive behavior separate for GET and POST requests?

Thank you all for your help!

Best,

Jürg
