If Evolution was placing its own windows - then it was evolution doing this. As
it stopped doing it ... it was an evolution (or gtk+) change. E has not been
involved in any of this. It's entirely a client-side (Evolution/gtk) thing to
do.

E has its own remember system that is universal - look into window -> remember
menu. (click top-left icon on window and the above menu or alt+right mouse
anywhere on a window). If you're not using it then... it's not up to E to
remember this stuff - E will not and will auto-place windows in a best location
if they are unplaced by the app.
