My Mac Mail keeps opening up by itself randomly even after i keep exiting it.
None of my email accounts are synched or connected to it as i have disabled everything so my mac mail is empty. But it still keeps on opening and popping up by itself! how do i stop this?
Before, when i opened up my dashboard, it opened up too. When i first got my laptop (MacBook Pro) it didnt' do that, but one day it suddenly did that. and now, i don't even open up the dashboard and the mac mail still randomly opens by itself. HOW DO I GET IT TO STOP?

Are you sure your not just hitting the red X? Mail runs in the background if you just close the window. Goto Mail in the menubar and click Quit Mail.

If that's what you've been doing then just disregard that advice. Maybe try trashing the .plist file and see if that fixes it.
