"Unknown error" is usually caused by interference from an antivirus
program. Which antivirus are you running?
As a minimum, email scanning in the antivirus should be turned off,
although that may not be sufficient to eliminate all bad effects.
In a worst case scenario, your antivirus may need to be uninstalled.

Email scanning in any antivirus should be disabled, for reasons
explained here:

If the problem continues, delete that account, restart Windows Mail,
then recreate that account.

If no improvement, let us know, because there are other possible
solutions.
