I do not see an "Exceptions" in the "History" section.

Latest Firefox release version 67.0.4 (as per previous post).

That was back before Mozilla removed all the other cookie management
options. See:

Remember back when you had all those cookie options (Keep until,
Accept/Block 3rd party) and Exceptions (which got renamed to Manage
Permissions which increased user confusion over that option does)?
There used to be more cookie options in Firefox and which made it one of
the better web browsers. Back then you didn't need to install
extensions for cookie management in Firefox. Mozilla took away those
options to dumb-down their product, yet they added Content Blocking
(with a custom level to add more content types to block).

Pretty sad when Google Chrome has better cookie management (and easier
to understand) than Firefox has now.

As for an Exceptions list or button under History, maybe that depended
(in an old version of Firefox) on which mode you selected: Remember
history, Never remember history, or Use custom settings for history. If
there were an Exception option under History, it was likely only
available if you elected "Use custom settings for history".

I suspect Howard is using an old version of Firefox that still had the
cookie management options and some Exception option (or is referring to
what is now confusedly named Manage Permissions). Could be he chose to
refuse to update to a later version of Firefox. Could be is using an OS
that Firefox refuses to support beyond some version (e.g., FF 52.9.0ESR
is the last version that support Windows XP - yet the OP is responding
in a Windows 10 newsgroup).
