[gmx-users] solvation_box

[shahid nayeem]

I forgot to mention that when I prepared urea_water box then also I got
similar box of water in one region and urea in other region separated from
it. But on minimization and following simulated annealing
and equilibration I got a uniformly mixed urea water box.
