FTP Adapter and Dynamic Folder Names

Hello,
I have a trading partner that provides data on a FTP location but the
folders are named for each day. (i.e. 200509220400) I am looking to
Dynamic Receive Ports with the FTP Adapter but I only seem to find
examples on setting the username and password at runtime. I need to
find todays folder. Does anyone know how to do this? A co-worker
suggesting buying Robo-FTP but I refuse to do that when I have an
Enterprise BTS license. Shouldn't this be easier?

Also, the files are compressed using gzip and tar. I am looking at a
custom pipeline component to unzip and un-tar these text files.
