Ah, the age-old SOAP vs REST debate. I'm going with A on this one - SOAP just doesn't play nice with POST requests.

Hmm, this seems like a classic SOAP issue. I'm guessing the 'SentEvent' object is not designed to be updated via SOAP, so D sounds like the most likely culprit.

I believe the problem could also be that the authentication token has expired.

I agree with Reita. 'SentEvent' might not be supported by SOAP.
