An outside system sends files to ours that my program finds in the IFS.
The name of the file sent to us must fit the pattern of:
Saleseforce_Master_mm.dd.yy_hhmm.csv
where "mm.dd.yy_hhmm" is the creation timestramp.

If the file name doesn't fit this pattern, it is "rejected" and an email is
sent to the creator of the file indicating the problem.

Since this is fixed length and the only variable is the value of the
timestamp, I'm wondering if it would be overkill to test with regex as
opposed to substringing the timestamp elements and testing those values.
