RetrievePOP3 and attachements with same name

Hello,

RetrievePOP3 is saving attached files to specified path and this works ok.
But if email contains several attachements which has same name,
RetrievePOP3 will save these and every next attachement will overwrite
previuos.
Maybe there is some workaround using macroscheduler features?
Or maybe next release could save save attachements using
different naming scheme in order to prevent overwrite.

Just rename the files as they come in, anything like....

Let>????=yourfile

getdate>date
gettime>time
Separate>%date%,/,date
Separate>%time%,:,time

RenameFile>%yourfile%,c:\newfile%date_1%%date_2%%date_3%%time_1%%time_2%.txt

It is not possible.
RetrievePOP3 does its job in one call.
So if there just one email with 2 attached files:
1.txt
1.txt
I will get only one MSG1_1.txt as the result.
