Thanx for your response!
Your perldoc-grep command gives:
$h->remove_header('Connection'); # need support here to be usefull
Questions: Why does LWP always kill the connection headers? What is meant by
the comment 'need support here to be usefull' mentioned above? Can you
tell/point me to some docs where I can find information over how LWP manages
its connections? (when to keep open connection, when to close connection,
when to open new connection)
Thanx in advance,
Marco Kleefman

Normally LWP always kills the connection headers. Try to run:
$ perldoc -m LWP::Protocol::http | grep Connection
The new HTTP/1.1 protocol module adds its own keep-alive stuff if you
request it.
