I used to see that frequently, but it has ceased in recent pre-release 
versions. There are also a number of display configuration persistence 
problems which have died off in the past year or so.

You should try upgrading to the last "beta" release (6272) or even to 
the latest test release (6292). See 
https://updates.mailmate-app.com/archives/ for the directory of all 
versions back to 2651 (2011-12-22)
