Exclamation Amazon rejects MOBI files

Hello

since 13th I'm no longer able to transmit news from calibre to my kindle email address. I don't know if it has to do with my upgrade to 0.8.5 or a change from Amazon.

Any one else having the same issue?

Here an example of an email I get back from Amazon:

Code:
Dear Customer,

The following document, sent at 10:32 PM on Tue, Jun 14, 2011 GMT could not be delivered to the Kindle you specified:
* Reuters - calibre.mobi

The Kindle Personal Document Service can convert and deliver the following types of documents:
Microsoft Word (.doc)
Rich Text Format (.rtf)
HTML (.htm, .html)
Text (.txt) documents
Archived documents (zip , x-zip) and compressed archived documents
Mobi book

Images that are of type JPEGs (.jpg), GIFs (.gif), Bitmaps (.bmp), and PNG images (.png).
Adobe PDF (.pdf) documents are delivered without conversion to Kindle DX, Second Generation and Latest Generation Kindles.

The following document types are converted and delivered on an experimental basis:
Microsoft Word 11 (.docx)
Adobe PDF (.pdf) for First Generation Kindles

If the document that failed belonged to one of the above document types, please ensure the document is not password protected or encrypted. Note that the Latest Generation Kindles support password protected PDFs.

Helpful tips for personal document attachments:

    The file size of each attached personal document should be less than 50MB (before compression in a ZIP file)
    The email submitted should not contain more than 25 attached personal documents


You can learn more about transferring personal documents to your Kindle in our help pages:
