That is true for me too.  If and only if, I am opening one application
in a work space.  If you have read the response I wrote you earlier you
will see that I am opening two applications in one work space.  In my
case they are Evolution and Xchat.  As I pointed out the first
application to open returns to its former position but subsequent
programs open in the top left corner.

On the other hand; if you can get two or three or more programs to open
in their former position while I cannot; then you are saying I, Gnome
and Evolution have a much bigger problem than was originally suspected.

If you check the bug suggested by Matthew Barnes, you will see that
there is not a way yet to tell Evolution to always resume at a fixed
position.
