Yes, sure. Most error returns come with a small HTML error page that must be skipped. The end of the current response always has to be found before re-using the connection, and reading until the end is the only way to do that. But it is not the application's responsibility to read the response body if it is not interested. HttpClient will automatically read the rest of the response when the connection is released, if I'm not mistaken. cheers, Roland
