SharePoint 2013 workflow : The server was unable to process the request

Here, I received another SharePoint 2013 workflow error.
This time the workflow was not able to send emails and the following error was being shown

Retrying last request. Next attempt scheduled in less than one minute. Details of last request: HTTP Unauthorized to http://sitename/_vti_bin/client.svc/web/lists/getbyid(guid'guid') Correlation Id: id Instance Id: id
