It looks like you need to turn session files on, then enter a filename into the next field to have cookies save across invocations.  I just tried it on a site I frequent, but it didn't work, because that site uses javascript to save the logins, and I don't have any ideas for any sites where I'm a member that don't use javascript, that was the only one I thought might work, turns out their site redesign last year broke it for lynx, it used to work.

Is there a specific setting in the lynx.cfg that I need to change?  I
allowed to always accept cookies.
Accepting cookies is not the same as saving them between sessions.  I
don't have anything specific to recommend, because I'm usually more
concerned with shutting cookies off than in saving them (I normally run
lynx with -cookies, for example), but looking for settings that bear on
saving cookies between sessions might be worthwhile.
