A HEAD request should work fine with a Proxy server. I am using a proxy
with HEAD requests and it is working just fine.

Subject: GET HEAD to Proxy
Is a GET HEAD call supposed to work when a proxy is in use by
the client? We had one caching proxy server that was returning
a 500, but the server is in beta and I kind of dismissed this
as the possible cause. I'm now seeing it at a customer's site,
and that makes me think this might be something systemic.
