Well, you can do this in the mail template I guess. Everything needed is in context. Breaking it into pieces,

1. Get the custom field

2. Get the field config

http://docs.atlassian.com/jira/latest/com/atlassian/jira/issue/fields/CustomField.html#getRelevantConfig%28com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue%29

3. get options using the field config

http://docs.atlassian.com/jira/latest/com/atlassian/jira/issue/fields/CustomField.html#getOptions%28java.lang.String,%20com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.config.FieldConfig,%20com.atlassian.jira.issue.context.JiraContextNode%29

Key and contextNode can be null.

4. Get Options from the Options object!

Hi Kerstin

Judging by the default JIRA email features, I believe that this option is not available. However, you may try to extend the email funcitons using an external/third party plugin.

Please take a look to the JIRA Enterprise Mail Handler plugin > https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.javahollic.jira.jemh-ui . Maybe it could be useful.

Cheers,

Paulo Renato
