This problem is affecting two sites that I need to log in to. The first is in
the URL above; the second is manager2.cybercash.com.
Both sites have login screens. Under mozilla 0.9.0 (build 2001050521), I enter
my login, and the palmos site sends me two cookies that presumably contain my
login tokens, and the site lets me in. I know this because I did it tonight with
mozilla 0.9.0 and the "warn before accepting cookies option" turned on. I also
tried it with lynk with the same results (the site lets me in after I accept the
cookies). I have similar success with the cybercash site.
Under 0.9.1 (mozilla build 2001060713 or galeon/gecko build 20010612), the
browser doesn't seem to even see the cookies. I try to log in, but no dialog
appears asking me to accept the cookies, and the site claims that my login
failed and that I have to enable cookies in my browser. I have similar failures
with the cybercash site.
A protocol trace of the palmos site shows that the cookies are definitely being set:
Here is the post from the browser

But, neither mozilla 0.9.1 or galeon using gecko 0.9.1 will take the cookies,
and it makes my login fail. I assume that a similar problem is happening with
the second site, but it's much harder to get a protocol trace over SSL.
I believe this to be a significant bug that prevents common usage of mozilla
0.9.1, at least for me. I use both of the above sites on a regular basis, and it
really sucks to have to fire up ie to get to them.
