The workflow could not be started - Alfresco version 6.1.1

Hi,
Configure in alfresco-global.properties

Look:
# Outbound Email Configuration
mail.host = smtp.gmail.com
mail.port = 465
mail.username=xxx@yyy.com.br
mail.password = xxxx
mail.encoding = UTF-8
mail.from.default=xxx@yyy.com.br
mail.protocol = smtps
mail.smtps.starttls.enable = true
mail.smtps.auth = true
mail.from.enabled = false

When clicking a workflow, the following error message occurs:
03060003 Failed to start workflow activiti $ activitiAdhoc: 1: 4.

Here is the documentation, as shown below:
https://docs.alfresco.com/6.1/concepts/email-outboundsmtp-props.html
What could be wrong?
With best regards,
José Roberto

Hi @jbrasil,

It might be useful if you could provide more of the log output. In the meantime, there are some useful pointers in this thread about outbound email configuration.

Hi,

Make sure your email should be less secure.
