Trend Micro is one of the top three troublemakers for Windows Mail.
I suggest that, as a test, you uninstall it just to see if that clears the
problem. If so, we can recommend a more compatible free antivirus.

Another solution is to upgrade to Windows Live Mail because it is
less prone to suffering bad effects from overly aggressive antivirus
programs.
In any case, your antivirus must be configured not to scan emails.
