[MlMt] Weird annoyance

[Robert Brenstein]

For people who do not feel secure editing raw prefs files, I can 
recommend “Prefs Editor 2” app. Editing prefs is safe as long as 
MailMate is not running. You may also try to reposition and resize 
window then quit and relaunch MM or the same plus fill out and save then 
quit and relaunch. MM should at some point write the new position into 
the prefs file.
