Are you sure about that?  I haven't bothered to change the default in
my lynx.cfg, but I find this in there:

# If ACCEPT_ALL_COOKIES is set TRUE, Lynx will accept cookies from all
# domains with no user interaction.
# The default is defined in userdefs.h and can be overridden here, or
# in the .lynxrc file via an o(ptions) screen setting.  It may also be

#
#ACCEPT_ALL_COOKIES:FALSE

That looks like it does what both of you are looking for.
