Description Peter Kirk 2003-01-21 22:39:32 UTC 
Version:           Unbekannt (using KDE 3.1.0 (RC6))
Installed from:    Gentoo
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2.1
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.19-gentoo-r10

So,

i use cookies only for some login+password sites, that save my password in the cookie, and auto-login me by reading that cookie when i come again. In kde-3.0.x days, I had cookies set to 'reject all', once I had my password cookies saved [whenever I opened a new account somewhere, I set it to accept cookies for one session, then changed it back]. With the 3.1 konqueror I have the problem, that, if I have it set to reject all cookies, it doesnt seem to tell the website I HAVE a password cookie (and there for doesnt log me in). If I want to get into these passworded sites, I have to set konq on 'ask before accepting cookie', then the I can logged in (propably meaning konq is allowing the site to check my cookies).
The problem is: I like having my cookies to reject everything...browsing the web with ask before accepting is a pain, and with accept all its a security problem [i dont want pages to recognize me generaly, thanks).

This realy needs fixing !
Thanks in advance :D
Peter

The idea is that if you don't want to get any cookies from a host, you probably also 
don't want to send any that you might still have around. In your case that reasoning 
clearly fails. 
 
Will reconsider.

It works for me in konqueror 4.1b2 svn trunk r813735, with the global cookie policy to reject all the cookies but the site policy allows the cookies.

Doesn't work for me with 4.1.0. It used to work some time on kde3 but today I tried to use that with bko and 4.1.0. I set it to reject all cookies and added ".kde.org" on the exception list. Then I logged in bugs.kde.org but on each page I opened I had to log in again.
Comment 6 George Kiagiadakis 2008-08-24 21:23:52 UTC 
Ok, I was obviously mistaken by the fact that the dialog asks for the domain and not the site. If I set an exception on "bugs.kde.org", that works. I'll file another bug for that.

So, this bug is not reproducable. Closing. (ok, maybe I should say it is reproducable if there is no exception set on the site, but this is the expected behaviour. If users want to allow cookies for specific sites, all they have to do is set some exceptions.)
