"Failed to email book"

Hello

I just downloaded Calibre onto a Mac. I tried to send as a test the Calibre start guide to my kindle (xxxxx@kindle.com). The autoconversion worked well, but I then get the below error message. Anyone knows how to get around the problem?

Thanks


calibre, version 0.8.11

Good to have your company, Ananas. On a specific question like this, you're more likely to get speedy and sound advice if you post it in the Kindle-dedicated sub forum here at MobileRead. Luck and best wishes. Neil
