title: Test AWS SQS End Point
body: <p>I have an AWS SQS queue, and for some reason my connections to the the end point are being refused. </p>
  
  <p>If I try: </p>
  
  <pre><code>curl -Is https://sqs.[REDACTED].amazonaws.com/[REDACTED]/[REDACTED]| head -1
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I get "HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found" error. I suspect that this is the root cause of the issue I am having with being able to access the queue with an external application. However, I have the conditions set really broadly: </p>

  <p>How do I know the issue I am experiencing is not a permissions issue? Is there a way for me to test the queue is actually responsive? </p>
  
  <p>If so, is there a way in CURL for me to get <em>any</em> or <em>all</em> data from a message to verify I am receiving content, and then build my application around my response? </p>
