Message from Japan

A 'save as' facility (Richard Mellish)
Re: Message from Japan (Jenny Cornwell 1)

This morning I received a message from a correspondent in Japan, 
containing a couple of jpeg image files.

The character set was iso-2022-jp which of course MPro was unable to 
interpret (understandably). The real problem was that I couldn't save 
one of the attachments because the file name was similarly encoded. 
Neither could I do an 'extract all parts'. I managed to extract the 
file with Attacher, but I had to type in the full pathname because the 
icon disappeared.

It would be helpful if in such case MPro could generate a random valid 
filename that didn't match a file in the target directory. 
Alternatively it could ask the user to enter a filename.

A related problem is the fact that you can't change the filename when 
saving an attachment. A 'Save as...' facility would have solved the 
problem described above.
