Just 'disabling' McAfee is insufficient.
Windows Mail is not compatible with most McAfee or Norton
security programs. Those will need to be uninstalled, not
just disabled.
After uninstalling your non-compatible antivirus, download
and install a more compatible antivirus like the free Avast:

Even compatible antivirus programs will need to have their
email scanning option turned off. For more on this topic see
