Description Paul (mmxx) 2023-05-25 12:10:13 UTC 
The size and position of the Claws Mail main window are not restored correctly, this behaviour started coincidental with an upgrade to Gnome 44.1 (but also other packages) on Arch Linux.

When closing Claws Mail, the main window was maximised. The clawsrc contains

main_messagewin_x=256
main_messagewin_y=210
messageview_width=1527
messageview_height=262
messageview_visible=1
mainview_x=203
mainview_y=32
mainview_width=1527
mainview_height=1018
mainwin_x=203
mainwin_y=32
mainwin_maximised=1
mainwin_fullscreen=0
mainwin_menubar=1
mainwin_width=960
mainwin_height=1018

But the window comes back with a window ~ 1/2 the size of a 1920x1080 screen.

probably wayland, yes?
Comment 2 Paul 2023-05-25 13:37:22 UTC 
BTW, it's absolutely fine here (as always) using KDE and X.
Comment 3 Paul (mmxx) 2023-05-25 13:56:32 UTC 
One system with Wayland, one with X11. The resulting window size is different, both both do not restore correctly anymore.

It was also OK here for years, literally.
Comment 4 Paul 2023-05-25 15:14:48 UTC 
Then it sounds like the problem exists outside of Claws Mail.
