When I fire up Netscape (Atlas, but it's not a new problem) and open a news
or mail window, the window top is unreachable -- it's up above the top of
the screen. Is there a setting somewhere that governs this? Regular windows
are OK; only news and mail are affected.

Two things you can do:
1. Everytime this happens, position the mouse at the
border and click/choose 'move' and move the window down so
you can get at the title bar.
2. Add this to your .Xdefaults file, probably in $HOME
directory, hidden...so do 'ls -a' to find it...

Netscape*TopLevelShell.geometry: 700x700+200+10

( ...this is valid if you're in X at 1024X768 lines res)
This will put the Netscape windows in 700x700 lines square
size, 200 pixels down from the top of the screen of the
current desktop, and 10 pixels to the right of the leftmost
border of the current desktop. Juggle the numbers to suit
your needs...

hope it helps..any probs or Q's, feel free
