My friend the author tells me that opening the book she receives after emailing it to her Kindle, making a meaningless alteration, and reading it again makes the problem go away, presumably because the checksum changed and Kindle no longer recognizes it as having come from Amazon, or something.

At this point I am just forced to hope that everything goes all right on the night, because I don't know that there's much I can do about it.
What do you mean, a "meaningless alteration?" S/he can't make an edit on the fly inside the Kindle, so do you mean that she...what? Takes the original source file, makes an edit on her desktop/laptop/whatever and then what--emails herself a new copy of the book, or...?

You say that perhaps the Kindle no longer recognizes it as "having come from Amazon," but there's still a difference between Amazon-sold/acquired ebooks and PDocs books.
