In short: Are you sure the bit of Smashwords you uploaded to will accept an ePub?

Hi there, actually this is the first time I've ever uploaded to Smashwords
because they previously only took the Words files.
Smashwords does now accept epubs as seen here:
https://www.smashwords.com/swdirect
The caveat being that they won't then reformat your file to all the other ones they usually do.
So far it's not a banner experience. They same epub that validates and works on every other service is rejected.
Like I said originally, I highly doubt this is the fault of ePub Zip, but I was hoping you or someone might know of a way to circumvent this error. I've been trying to find a way to manually adjust the mime type of the file, but no dice so far...
