How can I remove spaces from folder and file names?

Due to a bug with bookmark saving, I need to not have spaces, or special characters, in the folder and file names that Calibre makes when I send books to my device.

I found a config setting to control this when clicking on the 'save to disk', but not one for the 'send to device'. I tried it anyway, but it doesn't seem to have any effect on 'send to device'.
