Hi,

when converting a book from any other format use .mobi (not .azw3) and make sure that you have selected the OLD file type, not NEW or BOTH (that's under Calibre conversion setting "mobi output")

A good test is to send the file to your kindle's email address. Any error in the format will result in Amazon sending you back an error response instead of placing the file in your personal documents space.

Once you are successful with the above settings you may further experiment with changing some settings and sending via Calibre. Note that sideloaded books are not considered "Books" but "Docs" (personal documents) and may lack some proper ebook features.
