How to send "back to normal" notifications in Jenkins Declarative Pipeline?

I'm trying to convert an existing Jenkins Pipeline to the new Declarative Pipeline and I was wondering how to handle correctly mail notifications ?

I'm currently using this code: 

node {
   try {

      ...

      currentBuild.result = 'SUCCESS'
   } catch (any) {
       currentBuild.result = 'FAILURE'
       throw any
   } finally {
       step([$class: 'Mailer',
           notifyEveryUnstableBuild: true,
           recipients: "baptiste.wicht@gmail.com",
           sendToIndividuals: true])
   }
}

It works well, but I don't see how to use the new declarative syntax for this. I think something could be done by using post() and the different notifications, but I don't know exactly how. I've tried this: 

post {
    always {
        step([$class: 'Mailer',
            notifyEveryUnstableBuild: true,
            recipients: "baptiste.wicht@gmail.com",
            sendToIndividuals: true])
    }
}

But the problem is that it does not send any "Back to normal" mail.

How can I used the Mailer plugin in a Jenkins declarative pipeline in order to send "Back to normal" mails ?

Should use again a try/catch around all declarative syntax ?

This can be done a lot simpler now by using the fixed post-condition (Documentation).

Here's a quick example I wrote up in my sandbox pipeline project.

pipeline{
    agent {
        label 'Build'
    }
    stages{
        stage('Build'){
            steps{
                script{
                    echo "Building..."
                }
            }
        }
    }
    post{
        success {
            echo "Success"
        }
        failure {
            echo "Failure"
        }
        fixed {
            echo "Back to normal"
        }
    }
}

Send mail when build fails. When a build succeeds you're going to check if the previous build was successful. If it wasn't, you'll send a mail to tell the user it's working again.

    post {

        failure {
            mail to: 'user@mail.com',
            subject: "Failed Pipeline: ${currentBuild.fullDisplayName}",
            body: "Build failed: ${env.BUILD_URL}"
        }

        success {
            if (currentBuild.previousBuild != null && currentBuild.previousBuild.result != 'SUCCESS') {
                mail to: 'user@mail.com',
                subject: "Pipeline Success: ${currentBuild.fullDisplayName}",
                body: "Build is back to normal (success): ${env.BUILD_URL}"     
            }           
        }
    }
