It was long time ago when I last configured this but I think you need
capability to send emails. make sure you have set up variables:

#begin_src emacs-lisp
(setq user-mail-address "email-address"
	  user-full-name "username"
	  message-user-fqdn "some id"
	  smtpmail-smtp-server "server url"
	  smtpmail-smtp-service 465
	  smtpmail-stream-type 'ssl)
#end_src
