That symptom 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 no improvement after disabling email scanning, consider upgrading
to Windows Live Mail, because it is less prone to suffering bad effects
from overly intrusive antivirus programs:

To resolve this behavior, change the SMTP server for your e-mail account
to use the MSN SMTP server. To do this:
- In Outlook Express, click *Accounts* on the *Tools* menu.
- Click the *Mail* tab, select the account that you want to change,
and then click the *Properties* button.
- Click the *Servers* tab.
- Under *Server Information*, delete the entry that is in the
*Outgoing mail (SMTP)* box, and then type smtp.email.msn.com.
- Under *Outgoing Mail Server*, click to select the *My server
requires authentication* check box, and then click the *Settings*
button.
- Under *Logon Information*, click *Log on using*.
- In the *Account name* box, type you MSN Member ID (everything
before the at sign (@) of you MSN e-mail address).
- In the *Password* box, type your MSN account password.
- Click to select the *Log on using Secure Password Authentication*
check box.
- Click *OK* to close the *Outgoing Mail Server* dialog box.
- Click *OK* to close the *<-Mail Account-> Properties* dialog box.
- Click *Close*.
