>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: HttpClient (classic)

> It appears that headers are not sent when following redirects.
> RedirectExec.execute() contains this code:
>  
> {{                    switch (statusCode) {
>                         case HttpStatus.SC_MOVED_PERMANENTLY:
>                         case HttpStatus.SC_MOVED_TEMPORARILY:
>                         case HttpStatus.SC_SEE_OTHER:
>                             if (!Methods.isSafe(request.getMethod())) {
>                                 final HttpGet httpGet = new 
> HttpGet(redirectUri);
>                                 
> httpGet.setHeaders(originalRequest.getHeaders());
>                                 redirect = httpGet;
>                             } else {
>                                 redirect = null;
>                             }
>                     }
>                     if (redirect == null) {
>                         redirect = new 
> BasicClassicHttpRequest(originalRequest.getMethod(), redirectUri);
>                         redirect.setEntity(originalRequest.getEntity());
>                     }
>  }}
> If the method is not 'safe' and converted to a GET, headers get copied from 
> the original request. Otherwise, the original headers are silently dropped.
> Desired behavior: Headers should always be copied from the original request. 
> That was the behavior of HttpClient 4.x.
