Then that seems like a rather poor example to base your work on... You
obviously don't want curl_easy_send and curl_easy_recv!

"This" ? You're seriously telling us that a code you wrote doesn't work, and
then you just show us a very small snippet from that and expect us to
understand enough to tell you what's wrong in your application?

Please, tell us A LOT MORE and we might in fact be able to help out a lot.

CURLOPT_NOBODY over HTTP implies a HEAD request and yes, then there should be
no body returned.

That is indeed a funny post body you're sending, but it's not really wrong and
neither are the other options. IOW: the particular options are not what cause
your problems.
