Download and Rename file on RTC

I am writing a function to email a pdf using the RTC.
I have managed to do this using the "3-Tier Automation Mgt." codeunit. I have written my own management codeunit to deal with file names but running into some issues.
The issue is it assigns GUID as the filename and when that is downloaded to the client side. It keeps that name.
What I would like to do is rename it so that it contains a meaningful name. eg PO-0001.pdf
Am I missing something? Has anyone done anything like this?

I outline the different options you have for this here: http://blogs.msdn.com/nav-reporting/archive/2009/10/08/send-email-with-pdf-attachment-in-nav-2009.aspx.
I suggest you download the fob file and explore the code on how this can be done.

Already downloaded and had a look at it this morning.

Wow. Very minimal but very smart solution to the problem.
Thanks for your great ideas.0
