Any cookies sent down from the server will be returned on the next 
request so session cookies should certainly be working.

What version of HtmlUnit are you using?

The cookie support is actually provided by commons-httpclient so you 
might want to try using a newer version of that - "alpha3" is the latest 
release.

There have been a number of problems reported that seem to be a problem 
with the version of commons-httpclient that I bundled with HtmlUnit 1.1. 
    So far all of these have been fixed in the more recent builds of 
commons-httpclient.
