Research direction
Reproduce the attachment-opening flow with matching .jpg and .JPG files on the reported Android/K-9 Mail setup, then trace how the attachment type or extension is passed to the app chooser. Done means uppercase .JPG attachments open with the user's specified app, matching lowercase behavior, with regression coverage if the relevant test area is found.
