"This cookie was rejected to prevent security violation. [RFC 2109 4.3.2 rule 3]"

I realise I am probably in a very small minority, trying to access the site using the 'w3m' browser.

However, in the last month, I have been unable to stay logged in using this browser (all others are fine). When I do successfully log in, I get the repeated error message (on every page load) of:

Code:
This cookie was rejected to prevent security violation. [RFC 2109 4.3.2 rule 3]
Setting the browser to ignore cookie violations has no effect. Looking at the text of the RFC, the violation it refers to is:

Code:
The value for the request-host does not domain-match the Domain attribute.
Can anyone offer any insight?

Apologies if this has been covered before, my searches revealed nothing.

Are you accessing the site via http://flyertalk.com/ ? If so could you try logging in/accessing via http://www.flyertalk.com/ ? I found one report of the browser you are using being particularly strict about about this regarding cookies. Let us know if that helps,

Hmm. This is curious - I have a fix, but it is odd.

I access the site via http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/ but this appears to redirect to http://flyertalk.com/forum

Unless... I access via http://www.flyertalk.com/ and then click on the forum link. In that case, all is well.

Many thanks for your help!
