I was just searching the site for this exact functionality. Let me pose to you a couple of very good reasons to include this feature:
1. Most of my books are epub format. Currently. accessing the web server through the Kindle will only allow me to download mobi formatted books. If there was a new "email" button on the webserver that would email the book to my kindle, any book in epub format would automatically be converted to mobi format first before emailing.
2. The browser on the Kindle sucks. I would like to have the option of using any browser on any device (phone, tablet, laptop) to access my calibre library and email a book to my Kindle, and have it automatically converted first if required.
3. Don't want to be forced to use the Kindle to load books onto itself. I could be away from my Kindle, or my Kindle could be packed for a trip, or not charged. I would still like to be able to send some books to it when the thought occurs to me.
Can you please give some thought to adding this feature to the webserver?
