What version of email-ext?

Hi

I also got similar issue just few days back for email extension plugin 2.66.

Please resolve this issue asap.

Email was triggered for: Unstable (Test Failures)
Sending email for trigger: Unstable (Test Failures)
ERROR: Could not send email as a part of the post-build publishers.
java.lang.NullPointerException

That corresponds to this line of code: https://github.com/jenkinsci/email-ext-plugin/blob/email-ext-2.66/src/main/java/hudson/plugins/emailext/ExtendedEmailPublisherDescriptor.java#L244

I can add some checking in there to make sure things aren't null.

Hi Alex,

Can you please confirm when this issue will be resolved?

Is there any current workaround in Jenkins to trigger emails post build?

Thanks & Regards,
