Sometimes sites need to set third-party cookies (or at least cookies
that SM considers to belong to a different domain). For example,
wellsfargo.com sets cookies when I login, but if I want to view their
personalized messages to me, I have to allow cookies from
messagecenter.wellsfargo.com as well. Since I couldn't get to their
message center without accepting a cookie from a domain I'd never
visited, it was pretty hard to figure out.

Paul, that's always struck me as strange!

To me, in your case, wellsfargo.com is the base domain address, with messagecenter.wellsfargo.com being a sub-domain address, just as wellsfargo.com/messagecenter would also be a sub-address.

Sort of, you have to get to the base domain address before you can go anywhere within the site!!

Or, to get into your lounge room (your sub-domain address), you first have to get to your street address (your base domain address)
