Hi There,

I have been struggling with the email notifications in human task.


1. When a task is created, I want to send an automated email notification to the user. I don’t want to do it from my java code and wanted to use the human task to accomplish this.

Task notifications are currently based on User Task Deadlines so you need to fill in details of the notification on task level (like you mentioned not-started, expires at, etc). Notify attribute is not bpmn2 attribute and there is no such custom extension either in jbpm 5.
To map user/group names to email addresses use one of available out of the box implementation of http://docs.jboss.org/jbpm/v5.4/javadocs/org/jbpm/task/UserInfo.html UserInfo class that needs to be set on deadline handler class. See some details http://mswiderski.blogspot.se/2012/06/self-managable-user-tasks-notification.html here.

I believe 5.4 is production ready.
