In Calibre, the "Send email from" needs to be the Gmail username that's whitelisted in your Amazon account, Hostname is smtp.gmail.com, Port is 587, username is the Gmail username again, Password is the app password you generated specifically for Calibre, and TLS is selected.

I just sent a book this morning and Amazon did not ask me for verification.
This worked for me. Took an afternoon, but after jumping through all the hoops, it worked. I had a GMX mail account that worked for 10 years but I think GMX changed, or Amazon changed. Hope this works for another 10 years. Thanks, Cathy.
