The phone supports receiving files over bluetooth v2.0 - it's a SonyEricsson K800i (I've previously worked for SonyEricsson and Ericsson). I have an HTC Monet phone which I know does not support receiving files. SendTo has been very problematic in the past (see Bug #294617 which was reported using the same K800i).
