Not really, but instead of a set-cookie header from the server,
the author may be using javascript to simulate one [ignored by
Lynx], and the "not accepting cookies" warning could be inside
<NOSCRIPT>.
The note above is only a guess, and I hope I'm wrong: some bug
in these servers would be easier to work around than adding support
for javascript [not my problem, but I appreciate the difficulty].

Yes please:
An example URL?
Persistant cookies enabled?
HTML source sample?
Any of the above could be useful. Good luck in the meantime.
