Set iPhone photo format

Is it possible to set/change the format iPhones store pctures in?

It seems that the phone stores pics taken with the phone's camera as PNGs. That is not the most convenient format for sharing - JPGs being much more universally openable and shareable.


I don't see any Settings items to change the format. Am I missing something?

Have you checked what type of file the attached photos are with the copy of the sent messages in the account's Sent mailbox on your computer?


If the attached photo files are JPEG when checking the sent messages in the account's Sent mailbox with the email client used on your computer for accessing the account, the iPhone's Mail app isn't changing anything.
