      I have a freestyle job that fails to run the post-build extended email step when it is triggered by a workflow buildJob construct.

      The error message:

      ERROR: Could not send email as a part of the post-build publishers.
java.lang.ClassCastException: org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.job.WorkflowJob cannot be cast to hudson.model.AbstractProject
