[Bug 868175] Re: thunderbird doesent remember last window position

 

This is now particularly annoying with the Unity interface as
Thunderbird keeps starting in such a position that it pushes the
launcher off screen.

Title:
  thunderbird doesent remember last window position

Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  thunderbird should honor the location where it was closed last time and open at the same position when started.
  for example: on my dual monitor setup, thunderbird opens on the first screen in fullscreen mode. i then move it to the second screen and close theunderbird. opening it again, thunderbird opens on the first screen instead of screen 2.
