From MozillaZine Knowledge Base
Jump to navigationJump to search

As stated in the version 1.02 release notes, Thunderbird by default blocks cookies for all messages. To enable cookies, exit Thunderbird and add the following to your user.js file:

user_pref("network.cookie.cookieBehavior", 3);

Although you cannot submit a username/password through Thunderbird to sites that need a login to enable cookies for RSS, you can use your Firefox or Mozilla Suite cookies with Thunderbird. Just copy the "cookies.txt" file from your Firefox/Mozilla Suite profile folder to your Thunderbird profile folder.
