Thank you for your prompt response. I'm using a version of Calibre which is, at most, about two months old. I used to use GMX, but it is no longer one of the options on the right, as I mentioned in my initial post. As for using a thumb drive, once the books get converted, I have no problem porting them over in the MOBI format to my Kindle by using the Windows file manager; you don't even need a thumb drive. But in my previous life, before I lost my Calibre configuration, I was able to send the books over to my Kindle by email via Amazon. I would still like that option if I can get it back again. By the way, you can't use Gmail to email books through Calibre, since as soon as Gmail sees the mail coming from Calibre, it spits it out as a non Google app, and notifies you that your account may be hacked. So much for Gmail.

I will try to repost this under a Calibre Forum.
