For some reason, I cannot get cover images to stick to ebooks for my Kindle.

1. Take the original file (e.g. text file, but could be anything)
2. Add a cover image
3. Convert the file to a Kindle format (I prefer .mobi but I also tried .azw3)
4. Access Calibre library from Kindle via built in calibre server
5. Download ebook (tried .mobi and .azw3)
6. No cover image on the home screen ...

WTF?
