Here is what I have found. First of all, I have Ubuntu 10.04 with GLX-
Dock (Cairo Dock with Open-GL) installed on my system. My issue was
caused when I installed the Cairo Dock add-on in Thunderbird 16.0.1,
then I right clicked on my Thunderbird icon in my GLX-Dock and selected
'other actions - fullscreen'
After that, I did not get the option in the GLX-Dock, or in Thunderbird,
to change it back to normal screen. What I found was that this changed
the screen size settings in localstore.rdf to the following settings:
<RDF:Description
RDF:about="chrome://messenger/content/messenger.xul#messengerWindow"
width="700"
height="403"
screenX="0"
screenY="3"
sizemode="maximized" />
I then changed filename of localstore.rdf to localstore.rdf.old and
restarted Thunderbird. Thunderbird created a new localstore.rdf file on
startup with the following default settings, which were correct settings
to eliminate the issue.
<RDF:Description
RDF:about="chrome://messenger/content/messenger.xul#messengerWindow"
width="1024"
height="711"
screenX="0"
screenY="3"
sizemode="normal" />
note: screenY="3" on my system because I have a hidden panel on top that
is set to 3 pixels wide until I scroll over it. ScreenY would probably
be "0" on most systems.
