You should be filling in the Request, not the Response.

This is not the cause of the problem, but you should get rid of that code.
You are not supposed to be doing that.  Post() handles that internally.

Rather than using a TStringList, use a TFileStream instead.  Indy does extra
processing on TStrings parameters but not on TStream.  Your XML is going to
get potentially messed up during the Post() if you use a TStringList.

Use this code instead:

    TFileStream *LIpost;
    try
    {
        LIpost = new TFileStream("C:\\Temp\\test.xml", fmOpenRead |
fmShareDenyWrite);
        try
        {
            HTTP->Request->ContentType = "text/xml";
            HTTP->Post(PathHttp, LIpost);
        }
        __finally {
            delete LIpost;
        }
    }
    catch(const Exception &e)
    {
        ShowMessage("Error encountered during POST: " + e.Message);
    }
