Hi all,
Is there a way to change the name of the attachment (rev251_pub_0001.pdf) that is returned when submiting the form by email or making them all unique?

Not a practical way no. People have been asking about this issue for years. The name of the attachment is the name of the file. The ony way to change it is to save it to disk. If you can get the user to do this then you can change the name.
