Description

When testing replication (with SSL and apache's mod_proxy, so you might need the patch from #878) I noticed that erlang's ssl sometimes needs to send multiple messages. However, due to the {stream_to, {self(), once}} option when calling ibrowse, only the first message gets delivered (which includes only the first chunk). When modifying the option to

{stream_to, self()}

, replication works fine.

Please thoroughly check the attached patch for side-effects (I'm not sure why

{self(), once}

was used in the first place).
