Does anyone know of a simple program that provides an HTTP-to-HTTPS tunnel?

I'm writing a Perl program that grabs e-mail off of a webmail system, but 
most webmail systems use HTTPS and Perl's LWP::UserAgent class can't handle 
that. I've tried sending it through wget but I can't figure out a way to 
transfer version 2 cookies. (You can't just output those to a 
Netscape-style cookie file, can you?)
