But I'm not sure why you have to edit the Collections setting? You should just be able to send the book to the device, and then click on Create - it will automatically add the book to the collection if it matches the customization choices (for calibre managed collections).
I have to edit the collections settings separately because it doesn't seem to work correctly if the book isn't already ON the Kindle when I do the book metadata. So it's an extra step. (This may be legacy, and no longer an issue, but by now it's just "how I do it". )
