We use variables exactly as per your method (1), and it just works. Syntax is
${DAQ_MX_email_list}.
You’re going to need to give us a bit more info about your configuration.
What release of Jenkins are your running? Are you using the regular mailer, or
the extended email plugin?
Sorry to ask, but I assume that you have checked the spelling or the variable
name.
Can I suggest adding a build step that does an echo “$mail_list”? You need to
work out whether the problem is that the variable is not set, or whether it is
set, but the mailer is not picking it up.
Hope that helps
Matthew

Subject: How can we use a variable for E-mail Notification Recipients field of
a job ?
I tried the following:
(1) define a global variable in Jenkins - Manage Jenkins - Configure system,
and refer to it with ${mail_list} => the variable was not resolved
(2) define properties in a local properties file, and access them from the
EnvInject plugin => the variable is again unresolved
According to
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21224481/how-to-set-environment-variable-so-that-it-can-be-used-in-jenkins
we have to reference the variable with "$email_list"
=> none of "$email_list",$email_list and ${email_list} seem to work for me
(3) I had a brief look at extended mail plugin documentation, and they don't
talk about using a variable for the recipient either ...
