tfileinputmail attachments with same filenames

[AndreK]

Dear experts,

I have to download the mail(imap) and extract the attachments: tpop --(iterate)-> tfilelist--(iterate)>tfileInputMail it is working.

But now I have an issue, if the mail includs multiple attachments with the same filename (123.pdf and 123.pdf).

By downloading last file overwrite the first file.

How can I resolve this issue ?

Yes it will override, so you need to rename the file after tfileinput mail component use tfilecopy component.

Thank you for your quick reply.
But unfortunately if I'm using:
tFileInputMail--Main-->tFileList --> then it would be already overwirte
tFileInputMail--On Component Ok-->tFileList --> then it would be already overwirte
tFileInputMail--Iterate->tFileList --> then it would be already overwirte and it doesn't trigger the next component

How can I trigger next component after the download of the first attachment ?

After tfileinputmail ,can you connect tfilecopy and try to rename,check that is that working.

[AndreK]

which filename I can use in this case ?

If I connect tfileinputmail -->tFileList-->tfilecopy then the file will be overwritten.

Check the file name which you're downloading as a global variable in the tfileiputmail.

Does anyone have a solution ?

Unless you modify the source code of tFileInputMail, I am afraid there is no other solution.
