This and more can also be found in the Netscape.ad file contained within
your netscape package:

------
Netscape.Navigator.geometry: =500x700+100-0
Netscape.Mail.geometry: =500x800+200-0
Netscape.News.geometry: =500x800+300-0
Netscape.Composition.geometry: =400x600
Netscape.Bookmarks.geometry: =300x900-0-0
Netscape.AddressBook.geometry: =600x900-300-0
Netscape.Download.geometry: =500x200-0-0
------

Put these lines (changed according to your taste) in your ~/.Xdefaults
file.

from the Netscape.ad file contained within Netscape 4.75:
-------
! In previous versions of Netscape, we suggested setting the geometry on the
! TopLevelShell class; don't do that any more.  It will affect *all* of the
! top-level Netscape windows, including bookmarks and message composition and
! so on, which is probably not what you want.
