Binkd always tries to rename files if that is the case. It even has an option for this:

# Rename style if file with the same name already exists in inbound
#    rename-style [postix|extension]
#
#   'postfix'   append number at the end of filename, after dot (default)
#               example: file.ext -> file.ext.1
#   'extension' change filename extension
#               example: file.ext -> file.ex0
#
# Not applied to *.pkt, arcmail, *.tic, *.req - only filename is changed
# for these file types.


I don't know about other mailers.


Wilfred.
