string strXml = "<TransactionSetup xmlns=\"https://xyz.com\"><Credentials><AccountID>XXX</AccountID></Credentials></TransactionSetup>";

//  Choose a content-type.  Typical content types for XML POSTs are "application/xml" or "text/xml".
http.SetRequestHeader("Content-Type","text/xml");

//  Maybe you need other headers?
http.SetRequestHeader("Accept","text/xml");

Chilkat.HttpResponse resp = http.PostXml("https://www.somewebsite.com/",strXml,"utf-8");
if (http.LastMethodSuccess != true) {
    Debug.WriteLine(http.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

//  Examine the response status code:
Debug.WriteLine("response status code = " + Convert.ToString(resp.StatusCode));
