That's what I thought too, but Firefox doesn't honor the Expires header.  Try 
the POST "Enable Caching via Headers" demo:

        http://www.corry.biz/cachetest/

It clearly Expires in a day, which works in Firefox for GET, but not for POST.  
Same code works fine in IE7, content is cached for a day for both GET and POST.
