Jenkins 2.249.1. Email ext plugin 2.77.
-
-
2.78
To send mail via smtp.office365.com, a correct "from" address is required. If you don't set "from" in the pipleine step, the plugin should use the admin email. The first time the plugin is used, this address is fixed and can't be changed in the UI.
I believe the problem is with this code in ExtendedEmailPublisherDescriptor:
public String getAdminAddress() { JenkinsLocationConfiguration config = JenkinsLocationConfiguration.get(); if(config != null) { if(StringUtils.isBlank(mailAccount.getAddress())) { mailAccount.setAddress(config.getAdminAddress()); } } return mailAccount.getAddress(); }
Once an address has been recorded it can never change, even if you change the admin address. In my case it was the "nobody" address.
The address is recorded in Jenkins home directory, file .jenkins/hudson.plugins.emailext.ExtendedEmailPublisher.xml. A viable workaround is to edit the file and correct the address element. Example:
<address>address not configured yet <nobody@nowhere></address> -> <address>correct@adress</address>
Then restart Jenkins.

Changing the email address in that location through the web UI doesn't work, that's the core issue here. It will look like it worked, as the display will save and update if you go out and back into the Global Configuration, but it won't change when the system sends out emails.
It used to work until one of the recent plug-in updates, as in our workflow we change this from address about every three weeks or so. To get around this for now, I've had to manually edit the file jenkins.model.JenkinsLocationConfiguration.xml on the Controller, as Gunnar has noted in this ticket's Description.

The admin email comes from the Jenkins Location area of the Global Configuration if it exists. Are you saying you can't change it in that field in the Global Configuration?
