I’m trying to track down when it happens, but occasionally the Advanced settings window appears when Apple Mail is open, and I cannot find a setting to tell SS to not show it. Is it tied to a particular keyboard shortcut I may be hitting?
Same here. Tried different variations of settings but no changes.
Not disturbing but it would be nice to not see the windows always.
SpamSieve will open the Settings window if you or macOS tries to launch it when it’s already running. This can happen if you have a Mail rule that tells it to launch or if you have it set as a macOS login item. Also, SpamSieve remember window state, so the window will show at launch if it was open the last time SpamSieve quit.
I don’t have any rules that tell SS to launch, nor is it set as a login item. However, while hunting through the windows and checking each and every setting I did NOT have SpamSieve active in the Mail extensions settings for some reason. Turning it on and I haven’t seen the Advanced window show up.
Well, that was short lived. Advanced setting window still appearing. Opening the Mail app from the dock, and it appears.
sigh
Perhaps it’s time to just let Apple’s filter work.

I still think there must be something extra set up that’s causing this. But if you really don’t want it to open the window, you can click this link to set an esoteric preference to prevent that. However, if you do this, be careful not to hide both the Dock icon and the menu bar icon or you won’t be able to access the settings except via this page.
