As usual you're right Craig,
in case it could help others the right piece of code is:
// attach the file to the message
FileDataSource fds=new FileDataSource(filename);
mbp2.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(fds));
String correctFileName = filename.substring(filename.lastIndexOf("\\") + 1);
mbp2.setFileName(correctFileName );

Can't you just strip off the directory part of "filename" before you call
setFileName()? By that point, you've already set up the data source for the
attachment, so JavaMail knows where to find it. My understanding is that
whatever you set with setFileName() is the proposed filename that the message
receiver sees.
