Yesterday, 2025-01-28, a group that I am a member of received a post which had an attachment on it. ( /g/MFCL/message/105719 ) The attachment was a JPG file of approximately 260 Kb. My membership is set to receive all attachments, and the attachment shows in the message I received as a JPG file, and it opened fine on Irfanview on my desktop machine. [ Win11Pro. Firefox, OEClassic Pro Ver 4.9.3, Irfanviex Ver 4.7 (64 bit) ]

However, groups.io saved the attachment on the web page (presumably in Photos) as a WEBP file. People who don't accept attachments and prefer links to open them from the web were somewhat concerned because someone stated tht WEBP wasn't as secure of a format as JPG. An extended discussion followed. I'm curious if this is usual or if something has changed.

I still have the original in my inbox, but the file on the web site was deleted and replaced with the JPG file I had reposted. Does anyone have any answers regarding this, or is it something I should take to Beta?
