   Hello All!   
      
   I have noticed that if a file arrives where the same file name already exists    
   the system will NOT   
   overwrite it.   
      
   This is a problem for example if uplink sends a replacement file along with    
   say a correct .tic file   
   it picks up the older file and the tic file will have a different CRC for it.   
      
   Also I receive files as name.ext possibly at all hours of the day and night.   
   If any exist already I want the old replaced.   
      
   This is because the software that processes these files is only run at    
   speicific times.   
      
   Mbse does report this error and tries to save it a few times then gives up.   
      
   Is there any setting (in mbsetup) that will fix this as I have never found one
