It seems most likely that they only occupied the parts of southern Morrowind that they felt was theirs. These include territories lost to Morrowind during the Arnesian War, as well as older territories they laid claim to, so thought would make good buffer territory, perhaps even including the city of Tear (formerly a great slave trading center). I just can't see the Argonians occupying anything but swampland though.
However, the border remains completely unstable and Argonian raids, something unthinkable under the Tribunal, seem to have been a common occurrence throughout the Fourth Era. We have reports of them raiding as far as Solstheim, which suggests that, while the Redoran may have turned back the original invasion, the security situation in Morrowind continues to remain in complete tatters.
