Turn off the automatic call to the LWP::UserAgent env_proxy function.
This needs to be explicitly turned off if you're using Crypt::SSLeay to access a https site via a proxy server. Note: you still need to set your HTTPS_PROXY environment variable as appropriate.

    Thanks but surely that only applies if there's a proxy server involved, and there isn't, at least not explicitly. I suppose there could be something going on with the ISP. I'll try it.
      Tried that, no change I'm afraid.
