OK. Using my regex-testing tool:

http://www.castaglia.org/proftpd/contrib/regex.html

I was able to find a pattern which may work for you:

PathAllowFilter "^[][a-zA-Z0-9_\\.\\$()-]+$|^New folder$"

The man page for "regex" helped to supply a little more information:

To include a literal `]' in the list, make it the first
character (following a possible `^'). To include a lit-
eral `-', make it the first or last character, or the sec-
ond endpoint of a range. To use a literal `-' as the
first endpoint of a range, enclose it in `[.' and `.]' to
make it a collating element (see below). With the excep-
tion of these and some combinations using `[' (see next
paragraphs), all other special characters, including `\',
lose their special significance within a bracket expres-
sion.

Hence why I'm hoping that the addition of "][" to your bracket expression,
rather than "[]", may work.

Cheers,
TJ
