This is how you can get the headers:

    curl -I -X GET \

View on HN

You can see them in your browser's dev tools as well

I was curious why you added the `-X GET` to that, but it seems twilio returns 405 Method Not Allowed for HEAD requests. Is there any legitimate reason they would block these?

HEAD worked for me.

"-X GET" is superfluous, as that is the default method.

Unless you use "-I", as in the example, in which case the default method is HEAD.

D'oh! I'll let the record stand as lesson on rash comments.
