Creating a folder with a ? in the name

Hello,
I use SAB to download music from Headphones.
I use a category called music to put the completd download in a folder \mnt\cache\music
All is work fine apart from when a album name contains a ? such as If Not Now, When? [2011]
The error comes back...
Incubus - If Not Now, When? [2011] - PostProcessing was aborted (Cannot create final folder /mnt/cache/music/Incubus - If Not Now, When? [2011])
Any ideas how I can get this to work?

Which operating system are you using?
Where do you get your NZB files from?

Sorry, not enough info...
SAB is running on ubuntu 12.04LTS, the NZB's come from Newzbin or NZBMatrix.

Those sites don't have question marks in their file names.
So how exactly do you get the NZBs in SABnzbd?
Through an RSS feed?

Headphones passes the link to SAB. It actually grabbed this one from nzb.su

There are several ways in which an app can set a title through the API.
Apparently, SABnzbd misses one of the ways names get in and fails to filter that one.
I have no idea how Headphones communicates with SABnzbd, so I cannot tell you a work-around.
I'll see whether I can find out where things may go wrong, but a solution won't be available soon,
since 0.7.4 has just been released.

After checking this in Ubuntu 12.04, I conclude that there may be something odd in your system.
A question mark is a valid character in Ubuntu's native file system and I can see no issues when I test.
Which file system are you using?
