Calibre is failing to email books to my kindle.com address

coxwalls · 11-24-2012, 02:09 PM

I have downloaded a book into calibre and converted it to AZW format, but calibre is failing when I try to email it my "name"@kindle.com address. This has workid in the past but is failing now.

Incidentally, I have just loaded a txt file on to kindle via the gmail address, and it worked fine.

Any help?

I thought Amazon did not support e-mailing of AZW files....has this changed? You might try sending it as an 'old' mobi and see if it goes through.

Amazon does not support azw3, azw (which is just mobi) should work.
