The redirections are cared automatically.

Look at the example, e.g. curl-loader/conf-examples/bax.conf
Here the first URL redirects to the second URL, which is empty as it is
resulting
from the redirection process. The second URL is a POST form and parameters
are passed there.

Reading of FAQs could be also productive, which are located in README or
here:
http://curl-loader.sourceforge.net/doc/faq.html#conf-file-details

Take care!
