DESCRIPTION

Using XFCE 4.8, the Claws windows is created within the GTK2 framework below a
panel item, equivalent to the Windows taskbar or OS X's Dock.


RECREATION

- Boot FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE-amd64-p6;
- Launch XFCE 4.8 on Xorg 7.5.1 (ports tree current versions);
- Launch Claws Mail 3.8.0.


RESULT

The window is created below the desktop panel application and its position does
not seem to be remembered between launches either by Claws Mail or by the XFCE
session restore feature.


RECOMMENDATION

Create the Claws Mail client window in a standard manner.

and issues with window decorations which were claimed fixed and dated back to
2008.
