Two things are wrong with this:
A) Emails can no longer be used to check on the publisher. I did this because of the Penguin Random house awards for ebooks purchased. As there are multiple people buying on the account this made it easy to claim the correct books (for every 12 books you get a credit worth up to $30).
B) You can no longer use the email to search by title/author for items purchased. I have had items disappear from my 'my kindle' page and used the emails to prove that yes, I had actually purchased said item. Now I'm not sure how you would prove it.

Yes! I am having this issue. The first one I received like this was on August 22nd. I just received another with the book I just purchased a few minutes ago. I actually Googled to try to find out what the heck is going on, and found this thread.
It's bad enough no longer being able to see the book cover in the email to jog my memory of what books I bought... but it's ridiculous that the email no longer even contains the title or author or any indication what the book actually is!
I have previously used my saved emails to search for books I bought. I also kept them separated with freebies in a separate folder, because I am trying to at least read the books for which I paid money.
I hope this is just a temporary glitch. I too like to have saved proof of the books I purchased. If they don't fix this, I will probably consider only borrowing books from the library rather than purchasing from Amazon. I am that annoyed over it.
