Trouble logging in

[ctrlvee]

I'm trying the first step with logging in but having issues with my csrf cookie not getting used correctly?

The current version of PyTextNow, as far as I am aware IS BROKEN due to TextNow breaking it - as of a couple weeks ago. The error message is 403-forbidden, however it seems like you are getting a different error message. I am almost 100% sure it still does not work as this project is no longer being maintained, but if you share a code sample I may be able to point something out in case it does work again.
