Let me first say that I don't have any experience with using
Win32:OLE let alone using it to get at MAPI attributes.
But I do have some experience parsing TNEF attachments, which
seem to have MAPI attributes in them.
The following applies to TNEF attachments I've seen, I don't know
if its the same as what you're dealing with:
The short filename is in the PR_ATTACH_FILENAME attribute which seems
to be the value your getting. The long version of the filename is
supposed to be in the PR_ATTACH_LONG_FILENAME field, but when there's
spaces in the filename (from what I can see), it doesn't always really
have the entire filename. I've always found the whole file name in
the PR_DISPLAY_NAME field. Whether or not any of this helps you in
any way, I don't know, but there it is.
If these really are TNEF attachments, and nothing else seems to help,
you can always try Mail::POP3Client, MIME::Parser, and Convert::TNEF
to get your email and attachments.
Good Luck,
Douglas Wilson
