So you have tried as per the manual:
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=downloaded.pdf");
I use this all the time without issue.. do you have a shell that you can
use to "wget -S" and see if the correct headers are coming out??

Mailbox is the mailbox name, msguid is the message number and part
corresponds to the part of the letter that is an attachment. When the
user clicks the link the attachment data is extracted from the message
and displayed in the browser (if possible). This works nice, but here
comes the problem. Since the document is named 'attachment.php', that's
the name that comes up in the save box whenever the user tries to save
the file. Iv'e tried setting the Content-Disposition header to tell the
browser what to call the attachment, but to no avail. The browser still
insists on calling all attachments 'attachment.php'!
I've been trying to figure this out for a couple of days now, but no
luck yet. Perhaps someone out there have had the same problem (and
solved it)?
I'm thankful for any hints

PS. One solution might be to 'trick' the browser by creating a fake URL
(like http://www.lassoweb.nu/webmail/void/bob.gif), but in order for
this to work I need to tell Apache to send all requests to the 'void'
directory to a single PHP file. Anyone knows how to set this up? DS.
