Additional Information
The size and position of the GroupWise 8 Client window is recorded
in the Windows registry. The registry for this is
HK_CURRENT_USER\Software\Novell\GroupWise\Client\View
Settings|Viewers.Position. It remembers the location and size
of the GroupWise Client window. Development set a minimum
size for the window so that it will not save any settings smaller
than the size they set. This is fine for larger resolutions
but for larger resolutions (800x600) it makes the client window too
large forcing the user to resize each time they login.
