Alexander the way to tie it to a domain is to set the domain in the
Set-Cookie, otherwise it's listed as "unknown". However if you do that
the cookie applies to all subdomains. That is just the way Set-Cookie is
specified. If you want it exact then import via the Netscape format.
I've added an example to CURLOPT_COOKIELIST [1] showing how you can do that.
