Did you check the tomcat std out log file?

I have seen this error mostly related to non-existing email addresses.

To add, we typically see this error when the node is configured to send to a user account, and the account becomes deactivated prior to the send attempt.

I got the same error(Failed to send email).  The user account is active, and the user email is also valid.

Any ideas?

For us, the issue seemed to be caused by email recipient's Mimecast blocking the email.

Check the tomcat std out log file.

There is also a limit of 50 0r 100 recipients depending on what admin has set, if in your case recipients are more, than also it will throw this error

Check if the email adress is valid or not, I got the same issue in my case email address was not valid.

You should wrap your email address in the toemailaddress() function to make sure Appian understands it as an email address and not a basic string.

I think this would be better way.
