What does your anti virus report for it's activity. Both of those things sound like anti virus activity. The missing mail is often caused by the A/V deleting the whole mail file to get one usually innocuous message. The unknown error may also be a result of anti virus scanning. Especially as it involved a PDF. What A/V are you using.
