best way to start - KISS
This is what my partner & I do.
Start a new email to partner. In calibre open the book folder (press 'O'), this will open the folder in windows explorer. Drag the epub, pdf, whatever, to the open email and drop it, attach love and kisses, send email, close the book folder.
When the book folder is open do not delete, rename or change anything - period.
When the other half sees the email they drag the attachment out of the email onto their desktop, and from there they drag and drop it into the calibre book list, and then delete it from their desktop.
We do much the same with photos, weblinks, video clips etc etc.
