Well, that is most informative.
Indeed my problems with amazon, at least the cookie one started late January.
I noticed a comment from Thomas that spoke of extending the date table.
Any idea when that patch will be ready?

 Am I correct in understanding that the cookie that should be accepted has a

That is correct (and sorry I didn't see this message earlier).  One or more
of the cookies that Amazon uses during the login process has a date later
than 2038, and Lynx is failing to store these cookies because of a bug in the
current version of Lynx.

My understanding is that this has only been a problem since the beginning of
this year, because the cookies have a 20-year lifetime and therefore last
year the date would have been 2038 and Lynx accepts that.
