There is a standard SMTP header named Content-Disposition,
that has a filename attribute. That contains the original name of the
attached file. It looks something like this:
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=test.zip;
This is set by the mail client when you attach the file and send it.
The mail servers normally do not have to deduce this. Thanks
