+====== Thunderbird window position ======
+Thunderbird does not remember the last window and display position. Using wmctrl and xdotool the window position can be set and it can be snapped to use top half of left-most monitor. Adjust as necessary. The adjustment to thunderbird.sh probably will be overwritten on Thunderbird update. Alternative using wrapper shell script would need to be used if that's the case:
+<code>
+#General command line commands for testing:
+#Set thunderbird window to top left most screen
+wmctrl -i -r $(wmctrl -l | grep Thunderbird | cut -d " " -f1) -e 0,0,56,1200,1087
+#Snap thunderbird window to top half of screen (keycombination windows+up)
+xdotool windowactivate $(xdotool search --name thunderbird | tail -1) key "Super_L+Up"
+#main Thunderbird.sh script adjustment:
+sudo vi /usr/lib/thunderbird/thunderbird.sh
+add just before exec $MOZ_LIBDIR/$EXE "$@" at end of file:
+    #Set thunderbird window to top left most screen
+    (sleep 3;wmctrl -i -r $(wmctrl -l | grep Thunderbird | cut -d " " -f1) -e 0,0,56,1200,1087) &
+    #Snap thunderbird window to top half of screen (keycombination windows+up)
+    (sleep 3;xdotool windowactivate $(xdotool search --name thunderbird | tail -1) key "Super_L+Up") &

+====== Systray-X ======
