As this Downloads and Documents files handling in Jolla Email and other apps is clearly a bug and annoying issue, which should be fixed by Jolla, there is a very simple workaround to make the files in Downloads folder to become visible to "file picker" and to enable them to added as attachments for emails. You only need to make a symlink in Documents folder to Downloads folder with this command in Terminal as normal user:
cd Documents; ln -s ../Downloads
No need to move files or change any file permissions, but right after giving that command all the contents in Downloads becomes visible to be added as email attachments (Email app needs to be restarted).
Works for me in 1.1.1.27 with no side-effects elsewhere ;)
