I will look into adding a check for it in check library, unfortunately, i am rather swamped at the moment.
I notice that if I have other format files in the same folder (e.g. .mobi) they do not have the same shortened filename as the .epub? Should they have? If so I will do the appropriate rename as part of my tidy up action.

No - if I go through the rename process they end up the same (which I guess answers my question).

I was going through the library maintenance report. In many cases it had reported an extra format for the original (unshortened) version of the epub. In these cases when I looked in the book folder there was typically a mobi file with the unshortened version of the name as well as well as the epub one reported as an extra format. I was just querying whether I could safely rename the mobi file manually to the shortened version without using the Calibre rename+rename steps as it was quicker. I guess at sometime I had done something on the epub file (e.g. Polish) that resulted in the shortened epub name, but since I had not (yet anyway) carried out any action on the mobi file it had not been shortened..

You can do a bulk metadata edit with search and replace to add something like xyzabc to all titles. Then run it again to remove it, that will fix all of them in one go.

Thanks for the tip. As I may well have more potentially lurking I will do that.
