AEM 6.5.11 workflow participant step can't send email.
Hi guys,
My AEM version is 6.5.11.
I created a workflow only contains participant step, selected a group and checked the "Notify user via email."
when I started the workflow, it will throw error and email sent fail:

It seems you need to configure smtp server in aem.
https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-manager-65/communities/administer/email.html?lang...
you might need to reach out to your network team for the configuration related to your organization for configuring this if you will be using your organization email server.
