Hi!

I am downloading some newspapers daily with a cron that has essentially the following functionality:

ebook-convert $RECIPE $NEWSPAPER.mobi
calibredb add $NEWSPAPER.mobi

It works, because $NEWSPAPER shows up in the calibre GUI and goes by email to my kindle, quite fine and readable!

BUT: when I run calibre-server and look at the contents of my library the books are there but the newspapers that show up in the GUI and on the Kindle do not appear! In fact the list of newspapers is a mess! There are some outdated newspaper editions (some of the earlier ones that were the result of some failed tests), some newspaper names that look like section headings (politics, USA, middle east). Does this sound familiar to anyone, seen this problem before? Any ideas what's going on?
