    Maybe I'm misunderstanding what Email-Ext does;  I read it that it
extends the built in email functionality.  So, where I already have email
set up (e.g., this test job), and then tick “Editable Email Notification”, I
get the Email-Ext customisations for me emails.

OK, that was it: Email-Ext doesn't extend the standard emails in the way I interpreted, but replaces it.

Under that misunderstanding, I had misinterpreted the job's config. option “$DEFAULT_RECIPIENTS” as being the recipients I had listed above it for the standard Jenkins emails. This must refer to the global config. option.

By adding my email address again explicitly to the Email-Ext recipient list, I do indeed now get two emails, and the Email-Ext one is customised somewhat as I expected.


So all I have to do now is figure out how to make the email's body match what Jenkins usually sets it to (as in, include the last bit of the job output).


  Thanks for the pointers.
