How to send PDFs via Calibre activating Kindle's converter
When I send PDFs via e-mail I can write "convert" in message text so that Kindle will properly convert PDF to azw3. As Kindle's PDF converter is much better than Calibre's, I'd like to use it in sending ebooks via my Calibre. Is it possible to configure Calibre to add "convert" in text message of e-mails sent to Kindle?

It could be more suitable if you share this idea here to request a plugin for this purpose: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=118781

And the "convert" goes in the subject line, not the message body.

In Calibre, under sharing books by email, there is a "subject" entry for each email address. Type in "convert" there and see if that does what you want.
