Not necessarily. An HTTP compliant server is only required to
implement GET and HEAD; all other methods are optional.

That is what the HTTP 1.1 spec says.

But POST is present in all major web servers.

Apache, IIS, Tomcat etc..

I'm confused as to what you mean by "present". I can't speak to IIS - I wouldn't know one if you dropped it on my foot - but Apache and Tomcat only handle POST if you write a handler. If you know differently, please post the reference - I've spent a fair amount of time in both sets of docs and I've never seen "how to (natively)" in either.
