I haven’t looked at the code, but it makes sense that emails be sent from the master.
In the Jenkins configuration, you specify the SMTP server to use, and that is a global setting. If email was sent from slaves, then you would need to be able to configure the SMTP server on a slave –by-slave basis (an SMTP server that is accessible from the master might not be from all slaves).
