Robb,
  The Grail browser doesn't have cookie support in the final release,
but there is some code to help out.  Look at the file cookielib.py in
the Grail sources for code that parses cookies from mail headers and
the Netscape cookies file format.
  Grail is located at http://grail.cnri.reston.va.us/grail/.
