For such a critical app like Webmail a cookie lifetime does not make any sense. If the user closes the browser the session should be gone. I'm really sure most users don't log out but just close the browser - this would be a huge security hole!
The longer cookie lifetime makes sense for i.e. Google to remember preferences without logging in, but not for Webmail.
A checkbox ("remember me for XXX days", defaults to 0) on the login page might make most sense, so the users can decide what they want to have.
My 2 cents,

Windows Vista has been rumoured to be a complete port of the original PERL Windows code into C. This would explain, well, everything.
