My Mail app loses the connection to the server from time to time, no biggie. But the annoying this is that the Mail app keeps popping up when I work when it looses the connection.
I need to quit Mail and open it from time to time to check my emails and then quit it again. I can't find a way to turn off this functionality. Very annoying, there must be a unix way of solving this in terminal at least.

You do not say who provides your email—this may be the place to start with Support.
Typically if Mail is off line— you will see the warning sign next to the Account— click this warning to reengaged the server
If a mailbox is offline in Mail on Mac - Apple Support
Now I know what provider it is that fu*ks it up. It's two of my three G-mail accounts (as far as I can se anyways, they have the lightning icon when the problem occurs). On of them is my private account and the other one is my work account.
The problem is not that this problem is all the time, the problem is that it occurs from time to time and that is when the Mail window pops - up, right in the middle of work (in the flow).
