Attaching server.log

server (1).log

Is 2-step verification enabled for your account? You may need to use an application-specific password in the passwords.properties instead of your regular gmail password.

See - support.google.com/.../78754

There is no 2 step verification to my account . Account will be opened after just specifying the username and password.

Abhi is quite right - follow the instructions at the link he has provided. the logs clearly show the following:

Thanks Abhi & Philib

After applying 2 step verification for the user , we were able to send the mails from Appian.

Now we are trying to start a process by receiving a mail and we provided the details in ejb-jar.xml and in passwords.properties and we are getting the following message in logs :

Attaching ejb-jar.xml file for more details .

Now we specified the port in ejb-jar.xml file and now we can see the connection established with the mail server smtp.gmail.com with port 587

We created a process model to verify the Inbound mails( To Start a process by Email) and public events enabled, processmodel UUID is mentioned in Email Body.

Attaching ejb-jar.xml file details for more information .

From the log we get the details as follows :-
