Hi,

Does anyone here know how to save attachments using JMail.POP3 (ASP) as a
different filename than the original?

Here is the code that is saving the file to disk.  I've tried to add a few
random numbers and stuff before the at.Name like this:

  at.SaveToFile( "c:\hshome\chris\attachments\" & randomnumbersstring &
at.Name )

but that didn't work...  the error it gives is: error '8000ffff',
Catastrophic failure

Help!!

---------------code--------------------------------
Function getAttachments()
  Set Attachments = msg.Attachments
   separator = ", "

  For i = 0 To Attachments.Count - 1
    If i = Attachments.Count - 1 Then
      separator = ""
    End If

  Set at = Attachments(i)
  at.SaveToFile( "c:\hshome\chris\attachments\" & at.Name )
  getAttachments = getAttachments & "<a href=""/attachments/" &_
  at.Name &""">" & at.Name & "(" & at.Size & " bytes)" &_
  "</a>" & separator
  Next
End Function

Function dbAttachments()
  Set Attachments = msg.Attachments
   separator = ", "

  For i = 0 To Attachments.Count - 1
    If i = Attachments.Count - 1 Then
      separator = ""
    End If

  Set at = Attachments(i)
  dbAttachments = dbAttachments & at.Name
  Next
End Function
