Bug 2999

Summary:	Claws-Mail disregards style preferences of fvwm
Product:	Claws Mail (GTK 2)	Reporter:	terentius

Status:	RESOLVED INVALID
Severity:	normal
Priority:	P3
Version:	3.9.0
Hardware:	PC
OS:	Linux

The claws-mail main window does not appear on the virtual screen that has been assigned to claws-mail by a style in fvwm. It appears always on the current virtual screen. On the contrary, sub-windows like Message Compose or adressbook do respect the fvwm styles.
I remember that in some earlier version (maybe 2.7?) the behaviour was correct, and all windows of claws-mail always obeyed the fvwm styles file.
I would like to start claws-mail on a certain virtual screen and to sit there without interfering with other screens on the virtual desktop.

I think you should look at what changed in fvwm, as, iirc, nothing changed in Claws.
