This is how you can easily send books to you Kobo device.
Convert your book to mobi (I know, counter-intuitive) in Calibre and email it to yourself as an attachment. Open the browser on your Kobo ereader, log in and open the email. Tap on the attachment and a window will pop up asking if you want to download the file. Confirm and another window will ask if you want to open it. Confirm again and that's it, Bob's your uncle.
I have a Kobo Aura One and it works great, can't be sure if works on other devices.
Btw I tried the same with a kepub and it wouldn't work.
Why is the conversion to mobi needed? The Kobo browser will happily download an epub for you. And the kepub should work if you send it with the extension ".kepub.epub".
