I tried something but in the version 5.18(I'm not sure if can be applicable on your version), try to configure those thing on activiti-custom-context.xml(placed in activiti-explorer\WEB-INF\classes). Also you can configure your db connection, for example. First uncomment the beans and then fill your db information in the bean with the id "dataSource".

<bean id="dataSource" class="org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource">
    <property name="driverClassName" value="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" />
    <property name="url" value="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/database" />
    <property name="username" value="user" />
    <property name="password" value="password" />
    <property name="defaultAutoCommit" value="false" />
  </bean>

To configure the email add some properties to the bean with the id "processEngineConfiguration"

 <bean id="processEngineConfiguration" class="org.activiti.spring.SpringProcessEngineConfiguration">
    <property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />
    <property name="transactionManager" ref="transactionManager" />
    <property name="databaseSchemaUpdate" value="true" />
    <property name="jobExecutorActivate" value="true" />
    <property name="enableDatabaseEventLogging" value="true" />
    <property name="customFormTypes">
      <list>
        <bean class="org.activiti.explorer.form.UserFormType"/>
        <bean class="org.activiti.explorer.form.ProcessDefinitionFormType"/> 
        <bean class="org.activiti.explorer.form.MonthFormType"/>   
      </list>
    </property>
    <property name="mailServerUseTLS" value="true" /><!--This is important if you use Gmail as your hoster -->
    <property name="mailServerHost" value="smtp.gmail.com" />
    <property name="mailServerPort" value="587" />
    <property name="mailServerUsername" value="my@host.com" />
    <property name="mailServerPassword" value="hostpassword"/>
  </bean>
