Remove Special characters/spaces when exporting list

When exporting a list from a program and the Campaign secure file transfer protocol (SFTP) option is selected, the file comes out looking something like "xxxxx @ Apr 27 2020 11-59-06.668 PM.CSV". Is it possible to remove the spaces and special character @ so that the file is easier to work with within UNIX? Ideally, we'd like to spaces changed to underscores.

How will this idea be used?

We are moving export files back on prem and loading to a table to track channel assignment within programs. Having spaces/special characters removed would ease this process and prevent us from needing to alter the file naming when performing these tasks.

    Thank you for your input. We would need to research other clients using these files to understand the impact of changing it. We will watch the votes to see if others agree
