Title:
  Thunderbird starts in a full-screen mode and cannot be restored

Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News:
  New
Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  WORKAROUND:
  1. Edit ~/.thunderbird/*/localstore.rdf
  2. Search for:   sizemode="fullscreen"
  3. Change it to: sizemode="normal"

  ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION:
  Binary package hint: thunderbird

  I've tried clicking F11 in various of places and even all the rest of
  F-buttons, with Alt/Shift/Ctrl, and still no result. I've scrolled
  throughout the whole advanced configuration and there was nothing
  about full-screen mode. I don't have any extensions yet installed on
  my Thunderbird and I don't know what to do next.

  The problem has it basics because the profile that I've switched to,
  comes from previous Windows installation.

  I'm begging for Your help. It is stupid but really frustrating.
