Sending mail without mail nodes

[freejohn22]

Dear all,
I have seen in the jbpm documentation that it's possible to send a mail without showing it in the process graph (that is without mail nodes)

Anywhere you are allowed to specify actions in the process, you can specify a mail action like this:

<mail actors="#{president}" subject="readmylips" text="nomoretaxes" />

I have tried inserting this mail tag inside Tag,or also inside but jbpm complains that cannot parse the process definition.
Where should I exactly put this mail tag ?
thanks a lot
John

sorry..it seems I should have disabled HTML in my post.
Anyway I was meaning that wherever I have put the

<mail actors="#{president}" subject="readmylips" text="nomoretaxes" />

it seems that jbpm doesn't like it....any help ?
thanks
john

what is "doesn't like it" Giving errors? Ignoring it? Besides that, what version of jBPM? Do you have a unit test?
