I am a bit stuck on this one. I have email set up on Alfresco, and I thought it was running good. I successfully receive the SMTP test message I have set up, I receive site invites, and I get a Recent activity log daily. I recently set up some rules on a few folders that would email a recipient when something is dropped into that folder. I realized it wasn't happening and I checked the logs. This is what I see in my log when a email rule is executed:
11:59:01,409 ERROR [org.alfresco.repo.transaction.AlfrescoTransactionSupport] After completion (committed) listener exception:

My email configuration looks like this:
# Outbound Email Configuration
#————-
mail.host=mail.mydomain.com
mail.port=25
mail.username=Share
mail.password=mypassword
mail.encoding=UTF-8
mail.from.default=Share@mydomain.com
mail.smtp.auth=true
mail.smtp.timeout=100000
My email server is Microsoft Exchange 2010 and I have it set up with relay. I am just confused as to what is so different about an email rule and every other email. It's strange that other emails don't give an error and go through.
