Message 2 response,

Does the --max-time 3600 I use only apply to the actual file transfer part,
but maybe get set to a default thereafter while waiting (just a thought)?

Or does it apply to the entire connection time?

Thanks,

Rick

I know curl doesn't send any "STRU VMS" command, but I don't know much else
about this problem. I also know that nobody has said anything about them
working on the issue.

So, nobody will stand in your way once you decide to fix it! ;-)

Using what curl version on what operating system?

5 minutes is more than just a "fairly long" wait in my book. It's more like
an 
eternity! ;-)
I find two timeouts in libcurl that is exactly 5 minutes by default:
DEFAULT_CONNECT_TIMEOUT and CURL_TIMEOUT_RESOLVE, but both should change if 
you have given a different time. I don't know what causes your particular 
timeout.
Using strace or a debugger while doing this should be a fairly quick way to 
see where the time-out happens.
