    Description

      I've been using Hudson 1.219 with the regular mail notification for a couple of
      days now without problems.
      Today, I installed the new mail-ext plugin (version 2.1). I haven't used that
      plugin before.
      Here's the plugin configuration:
      Global Mail address => my mail address
      For testing, I want to receive mails, when a build runs successfully, so I did
      the following:

      • I activated the build trigger "Success".
      • I deactivated "Send to committers"
      • I activated "Send to recipient list"
      • I left the field for the recipient list empty, as I expected that the mail
        will always be sent to the global recipient list.
      • Even when I fill the recipient list, the NPE still occurs.

      Now the project fails due to a NPE in the plugin, here's the stack trace from
      the end of the console log:

      Email was triggered for: Success
      There are 1 triggered emails.
      Sending email for trigger: Success
      FATAL: null
      java.lang.NullPointerException

            Some more information:
            I didn't enter anything in the system configuration for the Extended e-mail
            notification plugin, as I found this setting only latter.

            Here's the setting as I've found it:

            • SMTP Server and Default user suffix were empty
            • system admin e-mail address was set to a default message (please enter
              something here)
            • the Hudson URL parameter (which seems to cause the problem according to the
              log) was properly copied from the normal e-mail notification settings

            When I fill out all of the fields, the e-mail notification works.
