Help with Email function for a Kindle

I've posted this over at Amazon's Kindle forum but I've only gotten a suggestion to post my question here so far:

I'm just learning how to use Calibre on my K2.

I have put username@kindle.com as my send to email.
I have put my normal Amazon registered email as my send from for outgoing email which is via sbcglobal.net

This is not working. I get no response that results in the content being sent from Calibre to my Kindle .

However, if I send my converted book or my newsfeed item manually as an attachment from within my Windows Mail program to username@kindle.com, my Mail program sends it out and I immediately see it on my Kindle's Main Menu.

The manual way involves my going into my Calibre Library and specifically choosing the item to email out via a Windows Mail attachment like any other email item.

Does anyone understand why manual is working but not automatically from within Calibre?

I really like the CNET newsfeed which I tried on a one-time basis. I'd love to set it up to receive automatically to my K2 on a daily basis!

Thanks much for any ideas.
