Amazon not accepting recipe output

[mjfriedman]

I'm having this problem consistently across multiple recipes: Calibre emails file to Kindle address, producing this rejection email from Amazon (first part below). Really appreciate advice/assistance!

Mobi book

Helpful tips for personal document attachments:

The file size of each attached personal document should be less than 50MB (before compression in a ZIP file)

The email submitted should not contain more than 25 attached personal documents

Its quite likely amazon is blocking these because it wants you to subscribe to their paid versions. Amazon has always stripped periodical formatting from emailed MOBI files, for precisely this reason. I guess they decided to boil the frog some more.
