Creating attachments within EasyDiscuss, when using Amazon S3, drops the file extension.

It seems like they modified that US region endpoint -> http://docs.aws.amazon.com/machine-learning/latest/dg/regions-and-endpoints.html

I already applied some temporary fix into this file JoomlaFolder/administrator/components/com_easydiscuss/includes/storage/amazon/amazon.php , it should work fine now.

By the way, i will log this issue into our issue tracker and we will try find a proper way to identify whether user set which US region from their bucket.
- US East (N. Virginia)
- US East (Ohio)

I've tested on my test site, it seems work fine for me, you can check my attached screenshot below.

It would be best if you can provide us with your development Joomla backend and FTP access so I can better have a check now.

It seems like you hitting this following error : 


The bucket you are attempting to access must be addressed using the specified endpoint. Please send all future requests to this endpoint.

May i know your bucket region is set to use US standard? Is it possible provide us with your Amazon S3 access as well?

Because I realised once you change that us region from `us-east-1` to `us-east-2`, then hitting this error at above.
