DM: Okay, let me rephrase the question just to make sure it's clear
what I'm asking: Have you compared the difference in Claws behavior
between exiting Claws with each of the two conditions?:

* 1. Menu: View: Show or Hide: Message View = toggled ON.
* 2. Menu: View: Show or Hide: Message View = toggled OFF.

DM: As per my previous email, when this is toggled ON at exit, I don't
experience this issue, assuming I don't manually edit clawsrc before
the next start. However, I do experience the issue when it is toggled
OFF, etc. I was just wondering if you see the same difference in
behavior on your system.

DM: Thanks for this additional info; might come in handy. Cheers,
