It could have to do with that Windows 8 is not tested with and therefore not supported for EPiServer Mail 5R2. Have you tried any of the supported operating systems http://world.episerver.com/Framework/Templates/Page.aspx?id=48791&epslanguage=en

I had the exact same error. As Fredrik pointed out to me earlier the "missing file" is not missing in version 5.0.343.136. Simply copying it from that location and then in to 'C:\Program Files (x86)\EPiServer\Mail\5.1.343.270\Install\Configuration' fixed the installation problems for me.
