Thanks for your reply. I'm fairly new to Jenkins so will have to look further into the fingerprints stuff you mentioned.
I've just had a look at the email-ext plugin page and found there's a 'bug' listed relating to picking up committers from upstream jobs! https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-17742. I'll keep an eye on that and see if it says anything useful. Thanks for pointing me in that direction!
