Disable your application redirection - after all the .Net application
will only receive requests on HTTP (from Pound).

Once you use an external application for SSL wrapping it doesn't make
much sense to have the internal server dealing with that.

Suggestion: use a proxy like tcpwatch between Pound and your server to
see what exactly happens.
