I want to return just the server headers from the response of a http post. Here is the code I am using. 
#!/usr/bin/perl

use LWP::UserAgent;
use Data::Dumper;

my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new( Timeout   => 5,
                                agent   => "test" );
my $res = $ua->post( "http://www.microsoft.com/cgi-bin/login.cgi" );

print Dumper( $res->headers );

And this is what it returns: 
$VAR1 = bless( {
                 'link' => [
                             '</library/Errorpages/mnp_utility.mspx/te

Why has it got everything in there, including the title of the document, stylesheet link, etc, etc ?
