Hi!

I have our email notification set to notifiy "people who broke the build". It's been notifying sysa...@ourcompanyM.com (note the "M"). This causes an exception, and it stops notifying anyone in the list after that.

I checked in Perforce, and sure enough, several of our build users are listed as having the "M" in their email addresses. So I fixed those. Doing `p4 users <username>` turns up the email address we would expect, without the "M" now that this is fixed.

But the email plugin is still trying to send to sysa...@ourcompanyM.com. I'm wondering where the hell it's getting that old address from. Is there some cache or something I need to flush?

Check the JENKINS_HOME/users/ directory for locally persisted user records from SCM (this is related to, but not the same as, users who can log in to Jenkins) with the wrong email address.

That was it, thanks! Been looking for this off and on for about 2 weeks.
