Custom Action: Sending E-Mail

[jwa]

Good Morning Folks,

I've written a custom action, to integrate with some third-party proprietary mechanisms internally within the company I work for.

This is all working well, however - I'd like to send an e-mail when the action has finished.

Can I obtain a handle to Jenkin's e-mail facilities, so that I can use the configured SMTP, etc?

Thanks,

jwa.

I haven't used this myself, but a quick look at the source suggests you
could try hudson.tasks.Mailer.getDescriptor().getSmtpServer() etc.
