This header allows the server to deny the operation early so that libcurl can bail out already before having to send any data. This is useful in authentication cases and others. However, many servers don't implement the Expect: stuff properly and if the server doesn't respond (positively) within 1 second libcurl will continue and send off the data anyway. You can disable libcurl's use of the Expect: header the same way you disable any header, using -H / CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, or by forcing it to use HTTP 1.0. 5. libcurl Issues Loading Loading
