"FORCE_SSL_COOKIES_SECURE:TRUE" keeps me from logging in via the
https:// route. When you get routed from the https:// login to the
http:// mail page, it doesn't know what to do with the secure
cookie. I'm guessing, anyway. I'd always just left it set TRUE
(more secure is better, right?), until I recently had the same
problem with another site, and stumbled on why.
Anyway, with dev2, and:
FORCE_SSL_COOKIES_SECURE:FALSE
ACCEPT_ALL_COOKIES:FALSE
COOKIE_ACCEPT_DOMAINS:.mail.yahoo.com,mail.yahoo.com
#COOKIE_REJECT_DOMAINS:
COOKIE_LOOSE_INVALID_DOMAINS:mail.yahoo.com,.mail.yahoo.com,groups.yahoo.com
#COOKIE_STRICT_INVALID_DOMAINS:
#COOKIE_QUERY_INVALID_DOMAINS:
PERSISTENT_COOKIES:TRUE
#SET_COOKIES:TRUE
[Note: SET_COOKIES is what is toggled by -cookies. When you
used "lynx -cookies" (in another message), you just turned
them off]
#ACCEPT_ALL_COOKIES:FALSE
PERSISTENT_COOKIES:TRUE
I have no problem with yahoo's secure login. I just noticed a
couple of those settings (ACCEPT & LOOSE_INVALID_DOMAINS) are
redundant, but what the hey.
I think I'll go compile the new version, now :)
