Is there a way to fix this?
[I sent this reply back on July 5 but it was bounced due to a greylisting problem. I'm sending it again in case my workaround is still of interest to the OP or others. -GNR] Although you have a newer version, this sounds like a problem I have always had with window sizes. Have a look at this posting: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg13662.html [The workaround I found was to eliminate evolution from the automatic startup and start it from the panel icon on each bootup (not so often as to be a real bother). Then, for me at least with evo 2.12.3, it uses the window parameters from last time.] Good luck, George Reeke _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list [email protected] To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
