Hi - I posted this in an Amazon forum and it was suggested I post my note here. I have a recipe which I use to download a daily paper (code for the main options shown below). I've been told that version 6.46 will archive older issues as new ones are delivered, whether or not they are emailed to the device or transferred via USB cable. I am not finding that to be the case. It will archive the issues if I email them to my Kindle, but if I transfer via the cable, the current issue just overlays yesterday's, and nothing goes to the archive. What am I doing wrong? This is the same whether I run the 6.46 Calibre on my XP machine or the Windows 7 machine.

For interface options I have 'download news automatically to device' checked, and I have unchecked the 'delete news from library' checkbox.

import string, re

class Gazette(BasicNewsRecipe):
title = 'The Gazette'
oldest_article = 2
timefmt = ''
max_articles_per_feed = 100
no_stylesheets = False
use_embedded_content = False
encoding = 'cp1252'
publication_type = 'newspaper'
remove_empty_feeds = True
extra_css = ' body{font-family: Verdana,sans-serif} .headline{font-size: xx-large; font-weight: bold} .mainPhotoCaption{font-size: x-small} '
