The strange filenames sometimes created by Calibre however hinder me to use that useful function as about one third of the books is not accepted.Therefore I am sending the manually prr mail with handchanged filenames.
Is there no plugin available to overcome this situation?
What version of calibre are you running?

As Kovid mentioned in his response to you back in February, 2022, if you are running an up to date version of calibre, it will automagically sanitize filenames when sending to @pbsync.com email addresses.
