Question Calibre won’t send Smithsonian Mag to Kindle

Hi. I am a new member of MobileRead.
I been using Calibre now for many years to send the New Yorker and the Smithsonian magazines to my Kindle Paperwhite. I subscribe to the print versions of both magazines.
Recently Calibre was able to send the last New Yorker magazine to my Kindle. When I tried to get Calibre to send October 2021 version of the Smithsonian magazine to my Kindle on multiple occasions, Calbre was unable to do so on each attempt.
I am running the most recent version of Calibre on my desktop.
Calbre did successfully send the September 2021 edition of the Smithsonian to my Kindle, but has failed on each attempt to get the October edition.
I haven’t changed anything in Calibre or on my Kindle settings since the last successful upload of the Smithsonian in September 2021.
Any one having similar issues? Any idea on how to fix?
Thanks.

Kovid, thank you for your kind response to my earlier post regarding the error message that I receive when attempting to fetch news (the Smithsonian Magazine) and send it to my Kindle Paperwhite.
I don't know if the file size is too large or not. I am uncertain as to how to determine the file size for the October 2021 edition of the Smithsonian magazine. However, in the three or four years that I have been using Calibe, it has always faithfully and successfully sent the Smithsonian to my Kindle, month after month. Additionally, and for what it may be worth, in the Settings menu of my Kindle Paperwhite, under Device Info, it says for Space Available: 852 MB free.
In any event, I am attaching with this "reply to thread" post the error message that I receive when I attempt to Download Now the Smithsonian Magazine to my Kindle.
I am not a coder or computer wiz so I do not know how to interpret this error message.
Thanks for any assistance that you are able to provide.
Thank you as well for Calibre - it is a truly wondrous program.
