Using this approach causes the PHP/CURL module to perform a multipart
formpost, while that web page is setting up a normal post. That is likely to
severely confuse the receiver.

Create the $formvars as a single string instead, in this style:

 $formvars="min=blablabla&password=hejhej&action=doLogin";

And it might just work better.

Sure, it may also be a cookie "thing" but first things first. Use the VERBOSE
option and its output to debug what you receive and send.

Personally, I always recommend using the curl tool for debugging purposes.
