Where is the curl header append function for your code???
I think its safe and less error prone if you follow the standard.
Do this:

struct curl_slist *content_type=NULL; //note the pointer here
headers = curl_slist_append(content_type, "Content-Type: text/xml");
curl_easy_setopt(mCurl, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, content_type);

SOAP is just xml over http so its crucial that if you will use libcurl
you use the standard of using the pointer to curl_slist layout above so
you can pass the right headers with post.

1)Create a header pointer and append the header type.
2)set the header to your handle
3)call perform();
