subject: 8.3 filename in file areas

Hi
I actually have a bad problem with Max/2 v3.01
I'm mirroring various ftp-sites for keeping my filebase up to date, and many 
of these sites, of course, have names not 8.3 compliant. Also if these files 
are in files.bbs with full name for example
[name much longer than 8 chars].[extensions too].[etc].[etc] Description
.
.
.
they are not diasplayed correctly at filelist prompt and BAD: they cannot be 
downloaded at all.
Are there Mex programs that patch this wrong behavior?? Will there be a fix 
for that??
