Send eBooks to specific directory on Reader

I want to create a directory and use that to send eBooks to. How do I do this? I want to do this when I use Send to Device > Send to main memory. Thanks.

I do this by configuring my Kobo calibre driver. (KoboTouchExtended for me, possibly KoboTouch for you).

At the bottom of the 'File formats' tab there is a 'Save template' box. Mine reads:
Code:
Books/{author_sort} - {title}
I don't recall whether calibre will create the Books subdirectory, if it doesn't already exist, the first time you send-to-device. If it doesn't I'm sure you know how to create a Books directory in the Kobo root directory

I've used Books for mine but it can be anything you want.

I thought I was doing something wrong and I was. I didn't have Use sub-directories checked. My fault.

Thanks for the help.
