Amazon with either add the [PDOC] or change an [EBOK] entry to [PDOC] when a book or document is emailed to a Kindle account for wireless delivery. This happens regardless of whether there is a record in the appropriate metadata field or not and regardless of whether the document/ebook requires conversion or not.

When emailed, there are quite a number of metadata records added and/or overwritten. Presumably, these are primariy there so that Amazon can manage the document in the Archive, being certain to match it to the document(s) on the Kindle(s).
