I have been using Send To Kindle app on Mac but the books I send end up being categorized as documents without the book cover on Kindle.

Is there any way to use Send To Kindle app so that the book can appear on iPad and Kindle while keeping the book cover?

I know there is some way to use Calibre to side load books to Kindle but that way they are not backed up or synced to my Amazon account.
The only way I know of is to jailbreak your kindle and then use one of the packages I found which I believe is called "Extract Cover Thumbs". This is actually a set of python scripts which copy the covers to the kindle. From what I am told I don't believe it works beyond firmware 5.8.9.
