MOBI formats
I have my entire library converted to MOBI but not I realize that it will not be able to be emailed to my Kindle. I dont want to use the ORIG_MOBI since it will double the size of my libraries.

Can I get MOBI to email to my Kindle or should I just bite the bullet and convert the whole library to AZW. I just always thought that MOBI was the best format to use.

Suggestions?

Matthew

azw is a renamed mobi, NOT another format, both will be accepted by Amazon Personal Documents Service.

That is what I thought but only the ORIGINAL MOBI will email. If I just have MOBI selected it will fail.

Original Mobi is a Backup, not 'The Original Mobi format'
