Send to Kindle will convert fixed layout ePub to fixed layout AZW3 (and likely send email reporting error in conversion); I'm guessing that's what they're using. If it is not fixed layout, ePub should get converted to KFX.

Send to Kindle PDF option should always be 'preserve layout' (so it converts to print replica) otherwise result is likely to be 'unreadable' when it tries to reflow. It's best to use the web browser or S2K apps and avoid email attachment send to kindle method, as you have more control.
