Here is how I did it:
1. derive your own method from the one you want to use - e.g.:
class MyGetMethod extends GetMethod {
.. constructors...
protected void processResponseHeaders (HttpState state, HttpConnection
conn)
{
final HeaderGroup hg=getResponseHeaderGroup();
Header[] headers=hg.getHeaders("set-cookie2");
// Process old style set-cookie headers if new style headres are not
present
if ((null == headers) || (headers.length <= 0))
headers = hg.getHeaders("set-cookie");
final CookieSpec
parser=CookiePolicy.getSpecByPolicy(state.getCookiePolicy());
for (int i = 0; i < headers.length; i++)
{
final Header header=headers[i];
/* NOTE !!! remove the header from the group since we
* handle it here, and then we call the base class
*/
hg.removeHeader(header);
Cookie[] cookies=null;
try
{
cookies = parser.parse(
conn.getHost(),
conn.getPort(),
getPath(),
conn.isSecure(),
header);
}
catch (MalformedCookieException e)
{
// ignore
}
if (cookies != null)
{
for (int j = 0; j < cookies.length; j++)
{
final Cookie cookie=cookies[j];
try
{
/* NOTE !!! overridden this check in the
* default "validate" since serversends
* such cookies. In this case, we take a chance
* and accumulate the cookie anyway
*/
if (getPath().startsWith(cookie.getPath()))
parser.validate(conn.getHost(),
conn.getPort(),
getPath(),
conn.isSecure(),
cookie);
state.addCookie(cookie);
}
catch (MalformedCookieException e)
{
// ignore
}
}
}
}
/* NOTE: we call the base class even though it is a waste of
* time since the above code is what the base class does (except
* for the special adjustments). However, better safe than sorry,
* just in case future implementations do something else as well.
*/
super.processResponseHeaders(state, conn);
} // end of processResponseHeaders method override
}

Mathias,
I know it is of little comfort to you but the cookie clearly violates even
the most loosely defines HTTP security policies. At least the site seems to
send the invalid cookie to MSIE (or any agent identifying itself as MSIE)
only
I see three possibilities to solve the problem
(1) I _assume_ that the host www.altavista.com may aslo have a DNS entry
within the yahoo.com domain. See if can find it out and use it instead
(2) provide a custom cookie policy. Unfortunately pluggable cookie policies
are supported by HttpClient 3.0 only, which is still in ALPHA
(3) Get HttpClient 2.0 source code and tweak it to your liking

Thank you Oleg, now it works !
But I still have another cookie problem :-(
Altavista have recently been acquired by Yahoo corp.
When you make requests in atltavista.com, you're now transparently
redirected to yahoo.com (whitch puts a cookie for the domain
altavista.com), and then again to altavista.com.
As a result of this redirection, I get this warning message :
21 juil. 2004 10:26:52 org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpMethodBase
processResponseHeaders
ATTENTION: Cookie rejected: "B=f24p1390fsa6m&b=2". Illegal domain
attribute ".yahoo.com". Domain of origin: "fr.altavista.com"
How can I accept this cookie transparently ?
Mathias
