Hi Steve, Thanks for the reply. May be I was not more clear. I am new to jmeter and trying to solve this problem. Here I am using jmeter to record squirrelmail client. The problem what I am facing, is to do with the randomly created file name on the fly by squirrelmail when attaching the file. here I am just re running the script which I had recorded with attaching one file. When I re run, it will attach the same file, but due to the way squirrelmail behaviour, it will again create the randomly new file (32 characters) and try to send it. I am not able to capture the newly created file on the fly, because the .jmx file is not having this info stored anywhere. First time it creates the file 1ajDgYkgMQoKBVkC2xkTbUF5yScvcHlA and when re run it created the name 0VIpOBdvcpYkGqCtd2Lvhs8B0o7HfW8A. All these are created on the fly by squirrelmail.
Hope now you are able to understand the problem. Do let me know please how to extract using post processor because its not clearly visible in jmx. Really Appreciate your help.
