Stuck Window Pane

I have a bit of an obsession with the placement of windows and the various panes within windows. It makes it easier for me to navigate the screen if the look of things are consistent.

I typically have half a dozen mail folders open in Eudora and have them all sized the same so they show just slightly more than 5 lines of mail info. Once I have all the details of the mail folders set the way I like, I close and then reopen them which should save the information in the .ini file. But lately one folder will not save properly. I adjust the boundary between the upper info pane and the lower message content pane and close it only to find it at a default setting when reopened. The mailbox itself is working fine. Other mailbox windows can be adjusted and saved fine.

What could be preventing me from saving the parameters of this one mailbox?

Have you examined the actual INI file? Before and after a change (and
maybe tweak one of the windows that you believe IS saving correctly, so you
can confirm a change in the INI file)

I don't actually identify the windows, but my INI file has something
for 13 "toolbars" -- if a toolbar is associated with each window there may
be a limit to how many it can track.
