I have been emailing them with the same address, both free and paid, and I just get an email back stating "The following document, sent on Sat, Jun 02, 2012 GMT could not be delivered to the Kindle you specified"

I am doing everything exactly as I have done successfully for months, but now all of a sudden it won't work. Nor will it be converted when i try dragging them over via the USB cable.

Blossom, I can open the docs on the PC with no trouble. Also, I have converted them with several different types of Word, all to no avail.

What bugs me and Amazon CS is that I am doing everything exactly as have in the past with no trouble, but now it won't work either by USB or email.

It is failing to convert somehow.

I can still download books with no trouble, so don't think it is the Fire itself. Something must be wrong with my .doc files, but what?

BTW, I was able to send .txt files OK, but they don't open in exactly the same format, nor can I search for anything in them.
