This is resolved. We finally figured out that we needed to use the
ignore_discard option in the cookie_jar and save the cookies to disk.
$agent->cookie_jar( HTTP::Cookies->new(
'file' => $cookiefile,
# where to read/write cookies
'autosave' => 1,
# save it to disk when done
c
# save even cookies that are requested to be discarded
));
It would have saved a lot of time if this were mentioned somewhere within
the documentation of the mechanize cpan page.
