Yes, no expire date makes it a session cookie. But no expire date gets
translated to a 0 in the cookie files (as the expire date is stored as number
of seconds since jan 1 1970), and thus cookies that are read from a file with
expire date 0 are session cookies.

How is expire time "0" passed from the server?
