OK, I think I understand. Looking back at what you posted originally...


location / {
     empty_gif;
     post_action /post;
}

location = /post {
     internal;
     proxy_pass http://my_upstream_servers;
}

That would in fact do what I wanted, correct?

Also there was little information on what the keyword internal does if you happened to have any info that would be helpful.  Thanks again!
