New user here - one of my first actions in Calibre was to try to email a book via the "Connect/share" button. This popped up a panel for a new email address. I tried populating this with the information of one of my Kindle addresses.
The attempt to send the book failed - I don't recall the particular error.
At that point, I wanted to go back into that panel and try editing the information but going through the "Connect/share" button would not provide a means to edit it.
I finally found that going to "Preferences"->"Sharing"->"Sharing books by email" gets me to that panel where the email server info is displayed. I have not tried updating this yet but just wanted to put this out here in case anyone else is consequently having similar issues getting to the server info.
