Apple Mail Opens Randomly

Apple mail will open in split screen randomly throughout the day. I use Gmail with Apple Mail closed. I know this issue is pandemic - and it's been plaguing Apple users for some time - but there does not seem to be a common, known solution. Is that correct? If no, can you point me to the best known solution?

Try using the yellow (Minimize) button to close the Mail window instead of the red (Close) button. In Dock system preference you can enable "Minimize windows into application icon" to avoid creating an extra dock icon.
