I'm looking for some help on how to go about updating my lynx configuration
so that it recognizes http://mail.yahoo.com/ cookies.
This has been an ongoing battle. Yahoo changes their cookies every
6 months to a year. Each time, they create even more broken cookies,
and then I struggle to figure out how to update my lynx configuration
so that the new cookies are recognized.
My current .lynxrc file says:
cookie_accept_domains=.yahoo.com,.hotmail.com,.tripod.com,.passport.com,.msn.com
cookie_loose_invalid_domains=.remarq.com,.groups.yahoo.com,.us.f19.mail.yahoo.com,.f19.mail.yahoo.com,.mail.yahoo.com,.yahoo.com
cookie_query_invalid_domains=.mail.yahoo.com,.groups.yahoo.com,.yahoo.com
When I visit mail.yahoo.com, I see one remaining cookie prompt:
Accept invalid cookie domain=.mail.yahoo.com for 'us.f91.mail.yahoo.com'? (n)
Lynx is eating the remaining cookies.
I am at a loss at what I need to give lynx. Can someone teach me how
to use the -trace output, or whatever other tools lynx provides, so that
I can tell lynx not to ask for this cookie? Thank you!
