Hey Jordan,
Earl may have other reasons which he may cite, but my reasoning as to why
he may have done that is because
you could run into duplicate filename scenarios. Also, I get the feeling
that some filnames are not "deducable". Some of my attachments have the tag
as simply "Binary Data" (rather than a filename tag). Perhaps Earl can
touch on that one.
I think the possibility of duplicate filenames (I send an attachment called
file1.wpd, and so do you) is, in itself, enough to require an incremental
naming scheme.
Earl?
