How can I configure Hudson to send an email for EVERY build, not just those that change the project's status?

Question

I've recently migrated my CI server from an old version of CruiseControl to Hudson. The only feature I miss from CruiseControl is the ability to receive email build notices of EVERY build, not just those that cause the status of the project to change.

I'm ESPECIALLY interested in build notifications for all successful builds.

Anyone out there doing this? Or is it time for me to learn Hudson plugin development?

You want to install the Email-ext plugin. It will allow you to configure emails notices for each build.

I use it to send emails for successful builds. You can configure it send the email to the committers, or a fixed list of recipients.
