MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - Amazon forcing me to verify MOBI each time I send

Sorry not sure which forum to use for this one - but I have problem with conversion involving New York Times recipe and trying to send output to Kindle app on an Android device (which has a unique @Kindle.com email address).

I am using latest version 5.9 of Calibre (64-bit) for Windows 10.

I have been using MOBI to fetch New York Times recipe to my Kindle app on Android - I find now that when I send the document, Amazon sends me email requiring me to verify before it will release the document. I believe my email address I am using to send from Calibre is added on Amazon as a valid email for receiving personal documents so not sure why it is now requiring manual verification each time the fetch job is sent to my Kindle email address. Something has changed somewhere.

So now I tried to change default output to AZW3 (Preferences->Interface), but the recipe job log shows it is still only generating MOBI. Is there some other setting so that the Kindle output for a recipe generates as AZW3 instead of MOBI (hoping that will get rid of the Verify message from Amazon).
