Perhaps you're seeing what I used to see. I would normally leave the Mail app running, but with all of its windows closed. And maybe once a day it would open a "viewer" window -- for no apparent reason.

Changing my habits to quit Mail (and not just close the window) was a tolerable workaround.

But I believe upgrading to the latest OS has fixed it ... I've not seen this behavior in several months now.

Hope this helps!
