To disable MacAfee you will need to do the following.

You need to uninstall it completely from your system and then re-install it without the email integration. That is the only way you are able to disable you email scanning feature with MacAfee.

The best solution would be not to have it installed at all on your system because it causes too many issues and is not very compatible with WM or any other email client.

Get and install either the free AVG or Avast which work quite nicely with WM. Make sure that you uncheck the email integration at the time of install.
