How to save files attached to a message with their original attributes (date and time)?

I often need to save files attached to Thunderbird messages to my hard drive. "Save Attachment" command saves those files and automatically changes the creation/modification date and time to the actual time on the PC. Thus, original attributes are lost. Could you tell me please, how to save the attachments with their original attributes? With thanks, Andriy
