I tried the original method with the original author not mentioned "convert" in the email subject line and it still works so Amazon has apparently not changed their translation software or added a additional check. For emailing to my Kindle Voyage I received a AZW3 file and a folder containing a small .SDR file in it. I note that the AZW3 file is only about 1/3 the size of the original EPUB file. Arrived files show my email address as the author in both Grid and List book views.

One of the two converted files had the title page print greatly oversize and spread over multiple pages but the other was OK. 10 font choices shown with 5 bolding levels and 14 font sizes on my Voyage with the currently latest firmware on the one book file I opened and checked. The original cover is in the file but does not show up in the grid view.
