@JSWolf's suggestion was about testing if your outgoing mail server is blocking books from being sent. If your mail client is able to email books using the same server settings as you use in calibre, then it eliminates a change on the server being the culprit.

So I stlll don't understand why this would suddenly stop 5 days ago.

So, again, for many years I've successfully emailed mobi files via Calibre to my own and other group members' kindles or kindle apps on non kindle devices using the specific device or app's @kindle.com email address. Until five days ago ..... when I discovered when sending books to my own kindle that, although Calibre said email successfully sent, nothing has arrived at all. So I tried with some group members' in case it was my kindle that was the prob. Theirs didn't arrive either, nor did different books to my iphone kindle app.

The TEST emails aren't arriving at devices either. Test emails DO arrive at my webmail and emClient BUT only after I have run "Diagnostics" in emClient (which must tweak the incoming and outgoing settings ... but that doesn't apply to kindle. It should just auto receive mobi files directly to the kindle email address?

I even uninstalled and reinstalled my emClient mail in case that would make any difference but it doesn't. I don't really want to uninstall and reinstall Calibre in case that makes a difference until my ISP calls me back (in case they've change the outgoing server in some way). I'm not sure doing this would make any difference either as Calibre's just mailing to the server I input the details for.
Reinstalling calibre is unlikely to help. You do need to check the configuration hasn't changed. And that the ISP hasn't changed something (which you are doing). Otherwise, you can run calibre in debug mode and post the logs from that, we can tell if the email left your PC.
