This fixes a problem with certain multiple monitor configurations. I have a dual-monitor setup with my primary monitor to the right. In this case, the popup window gets displayed with the wrong x-position, very far to the left of where it should be.

Instead of iterating through a few of the monitors and adding their widths, this patch uses the function that is already built to return the overall screen width. I've tested with a dual-monitor setup with the primary monitor to the right, with the primary to the left, and a single-monitor setup. All work as desired.

Patch works with the latest SVN as of Dec 19, 2009

    To install:

    Download checkgmail.patch at the bottom of this page.

    Go into a terminal and enter 'whereis checkgmail'. That will tell you where checkgmail is installed, it'll probably be in /usr/bin/ .

    cd into this directory (e.g. 'cd /usr/bin/')

    Patch the file: 'sudo patch < /path/to/patch/checkgmail.patch' where /path/to/patch/checkgmail.patch is the full path/filename of the patch you downloaded.

    That's it!
