I didn't knew that portables were 32 bit (or just didn't noticed) because I always just have been unpacking MSI installer and than copy/replace files to "./Calibre Portable/Calibre/" folder.
Highly likely this was the main reason of "MemoryError" message as conversion/sending process is quite RAM-hungry:
Spoiler:
Also as I mentioned it was version 5.44 running on officially unsupported Windows 7 (the last supported version is 3.48 IIRC), so there could be incompatibility problems.

I managed to send 7, 14, 21, 28, 35 and 42 Mb EPUB files to my Kindle via GMX Mail without problems. However when I tried to push 128 Mb monstrosity, I instantly got error message "smtplib.SMTPSenderRefused: (552, b'Requested mail action aborted: exceeded storage allocation', '********************@gmx.com')".

I'd like to run more experiments to find out the maximal limit but have concerns that in the end Amazon will ban my account for such shenanigans.
