Running Ubuntu Linux 13.10 Desktop (with Trinity); 
User Agent:Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:24.0) Gecko/20100101 
Thunderbird/24.4.0 Firefox/28.0

I believe this bug remains and remains annoying. More details.

I run Thunderbird and Firefox with a modified window size. If I minimize
either and then restore it; it will restore to it's previous window
position correctly.

However, if I close both and then start both; Firefox restores to the
window position it had before being closed. Thunderbird does not.
Thunderbird restarts aligned to the left alongside the launchpad
(sometimes left and top; sometimes left; always maintaining previous
window size). It should restore to it's previous window position like
Firefox and all other applications.

This appears to be Thunderbird only problem ;)

I do not utilize startup applications for Firefox or Thunderbird. This
problem does exist after fresh boot of Ubuntu as well as after suspend /
restore operations.

This problem is documented in Mozilla Bugzilla as Bug 571439
