Seems that the user you used to authenticated against the mail server doesn't have permissions to send emails as the user specified in the mail task. In the mail task are you using the same email (for the from email address) as the address in activiti.config.xml?

Hi Bassam Al-Sarori‌,

I am using the same email address in both the places.

I don't think it's an issue with Activiti seems a permissions issue. Can you try another mail server?

[aishusath]

Yes Bassam Al-Sarori‌, i tried the same in a spring application. 

This mail server is working there where we set another property "email.ssl.trust" along with the above mentioned properties. but, i couldn't add this property in process engine configuration bean.

Does the mail server use SSL? if so then you might have to set mailServerUseSSL=true. Also can you try setting the mailServerDefaultFrom to an email that is allowed to send emails by the authenticated user.
