MailActivitiBehaviour.setMailServerProperties has:

  String user = config.getMailServerUsername();
    String password = config.getMailServerPassword();
    if (user != null && password != null) {
      email.setAuthentication(user, password);
    }
‍‍‍‍‍‍

And ProcessEngineConfiguration has:

  protected String mailServerUsername = "activiti";
  protected String mailServerPassword = "activiti";
‍‍‍

Then, always is trying to send email with authentication… then, if server hasn't authentication, is not a problem this?

Caused by: org.apache.commons.mail.EmailException: Sending the email to the following server failed : smtp.XXXXX:25

For now I solve this problem

  protected String mailServerUsername = null;
  protected String mailServerPassword = null;

You are correct. I updated the default name and password to null on trunk.
