Camel HTTPS4 component is having problems authenticating services secured with NTLM over HTTPS

Issue

• Camel HTTPS4 component is unable to get past the authentication while trying to invoke service secured with NTLM over HTTPS protocol. There were no issues when Camel HTTP4 component was used to invoke HTTP endpoints secured with NTLM. But as soon as the endpoints are secured with SSL, we modified the Camel routes to make use of HTTPS4 and since then we are unable to proceed any further.
