ExpressJS set/get/use cookies

não é possível configurar cookies dentro de Pedidos.

response.cookie('name', 'My name');

request.cookies is and empty Object

a minha configuração expressa:

var express = require('express'),
    api = require('./routes/api');

var app = express();

app.configure(function () {
   app.set('port', process.env.PORT || 3000);
   app.use(express.favicon());
   app.use(express.logger('dev'));
   app.use(express.json());
   //app.use(express.bodyParser());
   app.use(express.compress()); // New call to compress content
   app.use(express.cookieParser());
   app.use(express.session({secret: 'secret'}));
   app.use(app.router);
   app.use(express.methodOverride());
   //app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/public'));
});

app.all('*', function(req, res, next) {
    res.header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*");
    res.header('Access-Control-Allow-Methods', 'GET,PUT,POST,DELETE');
    res.header("Access-Control-Allow-Headers", "X-Requested-With, Content-Type");
    next();
});

app.configure('development', function () {
    app.use(express.errorHandler({ dumpExceptions: true, showStack: true }));
});

app.configure('production', function () {
    app.use(express.errorHandler());
});

A Configurar O Cookie:

exports.singIn = function (req, res) {
    var mail = req.query.mail,
        password = req.query.password;

    return user.find({
        mail: mail
    }).then(function (d) {
        var user = usersData(u);

        res.cookie('mail', user.mail, { maxAge: 900000});
        res.cookie('password', crypted, { maxAge: 900000});
        res.json({ user: user });
        return { user: user }
    }).catch(function () {
        res.json(400, {"error-tag": "error-sing-in"});
        return {"error-tag": "error-sing-in"};
    });
};

Vou Buscar O Cookie:

exports.account = function (req, res) {
    var mail = req.cookies.mail,
        password = req.cookies.password;
    //here req.cookies is an empty object. I don't know why? 
};
