POST and 405

When I send OPTIONS request I'm getting response headers as fallow:

{Allow: OPTIONS, TRACE, GET, HEAD, POST
Public: OPTIONS, TRACE, GET, HEAD, POST
Content-Length: 0
Date: Mon, 02 Jul 2007 19:07:55 GMT
Server: Microsoft-IIS/7.0
X-Powered-By: ASP.NET

}

Yet when I'm trying to use POST method I'm getting 405 (Method Not Allowed)
and headers:

{Allow: GET, HEAD, OPTIONS, TRACE
Content-Length: 2826
Cache-Control: private
Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8
Date: Mon, 02 Jul 2007 19:13:04 GMT
Server: Microsoft-IIS/7.0
X-Powered-By: ASP.NET

}

Question is why? What am I doing wrong?

Re: POST and 405

The URL you are POST'ing to does not support POST. Please provide the
URL.

Even if OPTIONS returns POST as allowed for a static file, it will
return 405 for a POST.
