SUMMARY Cannot send files that contain colon in filename. Colon is an invalid character in filenames on Android. Yet, it still should be possible to send a file, or at the very least, the error message should be more descriptive. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Create a file with colon in filename on desktop. 2. Try to send this files to Android device. OBSERVED RESULT Error "Failed receiving file from <desktop-hostname>" on Android. No error on desktop. EXPECTED RESULT There are multiple solutions. I would prefer that the file is sent to Android and the colon is replaced with underscore (that's what my phone does, when I try to rename the file and put a colon in filename). Another option would be to display a dialogue prompting to input a different filename. At least fixing the error message, so it points out that the filename is invalid, and why, would be an improvement.

Seems like it's exactly the same problem with "|" character.
