Bug Description

Receive a photo attachment
Select preview and open with gallery
The files are named 1.jpeg, 2.jpeg per their order in the message
Gallery names them 1.1.jpeg etc as they collide with the last save

Camera uses a convention of the form imageYYYYMMDD_timeinmesecs.jpg

Messaging should do the same or similar with a different prefix. (like attachment or messages)
Also, the file extensions are inconsistent jepg vs jpg.

This makes it difficult when retrieving the photos from the camera

affects: messaging-app → messaging-app (Ubuntu)
