I'm using Alfresco CE 3.2r. To activate the e-mail sending functionality, I edited the file alfresco-global.properties, located at tomcat\shared\classes. I put this into the file (rather uncomment it 🙂 ) :

#
# Outbound Email Configuration
#————-
mail.host=smtp.something
mail.port=25
mail.username=your_email_adress
mail.password=your_passwd
mail.encoding=UTF-8
mail.from.default=me@me.org
mail.smtp.auth=false
mail.smtp.timeout=30000 ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

And this works fine…Now, I can send e-mails to people!!
Hope it helps!

I've never used JBoss so far. Sorry about that!
Hope you found the solution!
