Email to @kindle.com failed

Hi,

After I "fetch news" I have auto email to me@kindle.com setup. Lately it continuously fails. This is the trace:

"
Sending failed...

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\email.py", line 43, in run
File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\email.py", line 130, in sendmail
File "site-packages\calibre\utils\smtp.py", line 116, in sendmail
File "site-packages\calibre\utils\smtp.py", line 108, in sendmail_direct
IOError: Failed to send mail: error(10060, 'A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond')
"

Any ideas how to solve?
TIA
Gert

A good place would be to ask in the calibre forum. Just to rule out a fault at Amazon's end, try to send the file by hand with your email client instead of through calibre.

I have requested this thread be moved. Please do not start another thread.

timeout can just be from a lousy connection (location)

Did it ever work reliably? From that region?

Hi the ducks,

1 Where did you move it to?
2 Yes, until a few weeks ago it worked perfectly for years.

TIA
