Bug description

If a file, (LF), is a linked file to another, (SF), when LF is sent, rather than following the link and sending SF, LF is copied as is. This results in either nothing being copied, I tried to an Android phone, or a file that's a broken link, when sent to another Linux Mint system.

Steps to reproduce

Create a linked file, LF, to another file, SF. Send SF, or try to, to another system using Warpinator.

Expected behavior

I'd expect the link to be followed and the source file, SF, to be sent with the linked file's, LF, name.
