Please clarify what the problem is with the name of the file when you save the attached file?

The attached file name would be expected to use the same language that is used in the message (if that's what you mean) and therefore saved using the same language as well.

the file name is

02.09.2019 ΔΤ ΣΥΝΕΝΤΕΥΞΗ ΣΚΑΙ docx.docx

when ask to save shows


02.09.2019 ÄÔ ÓÕÍÅÍÔÅÕÎÇ ÓÊÁÉ docx.docx

when saved ends up like this

This occurs because POP Peeper does not have native unicode support. I've been working on transitioning POP Peeper to unicode, but it's a very arduous task and will certainly continue to be a work in progress once it's initially ready.
