In the FAQ a solution is referenced, but the link does bot show the anwser.
Does someone have the article or the correct link?
Here is the full question from the FAQ:
On Mac I am always being asked to allow incoming network connections for RSSOwl, why? And the anwser:
Please refer to this news post on how to get rid of this annoying dialog: http://www.rssowl.org/node/311

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
If you are using RSSOwl on the Mac, you will be happy to hear that RSSOwl
will run on any Mac OS version as long as Java is installed. I am now on
Mac OS X 10.10 and RSSOwl just works fine.
However, one annoying issue I see is a reappearing dialog from the firewall
that will ask you to allow incoming connections for RSSOwl whenever you
start RSSOwl:

You will only see this dialog if your firewall is turned on. Regardless of
what you choose, the dialog will always come back when you restart RSSOwl.
The reason for this is that Mac OS can only remember your selection for
applications that are signed. RSSOwl is not signed by default, but you can
quickly do so from the Mac OS terminal:
sudo codesign --force --deep --sign -
For example:
sudo codesign --force --deep --sign - /Applications/RSSOwl.app
You should first remove RSSOwl from the list of applications in the
firewall settings. When you now run RSSOwl and pick an option from the
dialog, you will not be asked again from then on!
