tl;dr I've sent a number of files to my Kindle 10th's private email address about 3,5 hour ago and there is no reaction so far -- neither return / rejection email nor books appearing in the device.
When I have registered my "private" emails address for my Kindle 3rd generation ten years ago, I needed about 10-15 minutes between sending an attachment to that address and actually seeing a book in my device.
It is now 3.5 hours since I've sent a number of books to my freshly registered Kindle's email address and... there's nothing. No rejection emails and no books actually appearing in my Librardy / Downloaded section.
I have had anything that resembles a commercial book be silently rejected, while clearly non-commercial documents (personal documents, scraped web serial novels) go through successfully (in about 20min), even if they're very long. That may be the issue here. I stopped using it for that reason.
Right now, if someone from an unauthorised email address will try to send a content to your Kindle / your Kindle's emails address then that person will not be notified at all. Only you (Kindle owner) will get a notification to your own inbox.
I am more than sure that this was different 10 years ago (with Kindle 3rd) and that then the person trying to send anything to your Kindle was notified that conversion or transfer failed due to fact that sender is not among authorised email addresses.
Have you tried Send to Kindle ? It's a free application from Amazon. Install it on your PC and select which file[s],you want to transfer to which device. You can drag a bunch of files onto its icon on the desktop. My experience is that they all get transferred from my PC to Kindle Fire HD in nanoseconds.
I was wondering if there was a way to send a note from Evernote to Kindle, via Amazon's Personal Document delivery service, where it would take a note from Evernote (maybe convert it to MOBI?) and send it as a document to my Kindle 3 (via your x...@free.kindle.com address).
I was hoping it would be similar to Instapaper's setup, where you add Instapaper's given email address (x...@instapaper.com) to the approved email's list under your Amazon account. I tried adding Evernote's unique email address (under Tools>Account Info) under the approved emails, however when trying to send a note via email (through Evernote's Share button), the document was not delivered to my Kindle under Wi-Fi.
I am using This application creates a folder in your dropbox sync which upload to gmail account every file that you save there. If you create a automatic filter in gmail to send to kindle.free, you can send automatically files to kindle. Thus, you need only export your note (s) as html file in that folder and ready!!!.
If you send an EPUB file to to a Kindle it will be converted to MOBI with KindleGen. If you send a MOBI file to a Kindle it will be sent unprocessed. If you send an EPUB file and tick the Kepubify checkbox, it will be converted into a Kobo EPUB using Kepubify. If you send a MOBI file to a Kobo, it will not be converted.
Your ebook will be stored on the server as long as your Kobo/Kindle is viewing the unique key and is connected to wifi. It will be deleted irrevocably when the key expires about 30 seconds after you close the browser, generate a new key or disable wifi on your ereader.
I use the Send to Kindle desktop application to send epub ebooks converted to Mobi format to my Kindle. Since enabling two factor authentication (using Authy code generator), I am unable to log the app in to Amazon and so unable to upload this way.
Although point 2. doesn't apply as there is no error message, adding the code from the authenticator app to the end of the password and re-submitting worked and the application logged in successfully.
In Calibre, the "Send email from" needs to be the Gmail username that's whitelisted in your Amazon account, Hostname is smtp.gmail.com, Port is 587, username is the Gmail username again, Password is the app password you generated specifically for Calibre, and TLS is selected.
I want to be able to send documents with a particular label to my kindle. I would like them to be in a format that allows the Kindle to set the text format and size easily. Preferable it would be in something like Mobi.
I just wanted to check on something about your workflow. Are you using the Amazon Kindle? If that's the case, I'm sorry to say that we don't have the Kindle integration available right now. However, we do have a request to add Kindle to our list of integrations. Please let me know if you would like to be added to that request.
I want to send books that I have saved on Dropbox to my Kindle and I read online that you can do this automatically if you set up Kindlebox on Dropbox - can;t find Kinbdlebox anywahere on my Dropbox app on my laptop.

This is normal - you won't be able to find this within our desktop application as it doesn't exist. For more context now, this Kindlebox you mentioned is actually a third party app - you can find more using a simple google search.
Thanks for your reply - I was trying to sync my Dropbox with my Kindle device and I found on Google that I could do this automatically by authorising Kindlebox on both Amazon and Dropbox - however, when I open Kindlebox it asks me to sign in with Dropbox, and when I try to do so then it tells me that the app has been disabled.
Thanks for keeping me in the loop @Sdhirst6 - I appreciate it and sorry to hear that. I guess this won't be possible due to its limited storage (I've did a little research and I see that it comes with 2 GB at the moment) and due to the restrictions Amazon has set.
FYI, when someone refers to "my Kindle", they invariably mean an Amazon E Ink device designed to read books, not the so-called "Kindle Fire", which is a totally different device (an inferior tablet that Amazon's marketing department slapped the Kindle name on, which I'm sure didn't please the Kindle product people).
1. In order to download an Edelweiss Digital Review Copy to your Kindle, you will need to first go to your Kindle Settings in Amazon and add our kindle email address as one of your approved emailers. To do this:
This will bring you to this box, where you should select Kindle. You can also check the box below to download to the Kindle in the future (you can easily change this later if you do use another device). Click Continue.
If you set the Kindle as your preferred format in step 3, then the next time you download a book from Edelweiss, you will skip some steps. If you want to download the file in a non-Kindle format, you can select Change at the top of the box.
Note that Kindle downloads of Edelweiss digital review copies can only be read on your Kindle or Kindle mobile app and cannot be shared or read on a computer using the Kindle for PC app. If you would like to read review copies on your computer, please follow our instructions on downloading and reading digital review copies on a computer.
You can check whether a book has been sent to your device from your Manage Your Content and Devices page in the Content Tab, select show Docs (Edelweiss books will send to your Documents folder on Kindle, rather than Books).
I purchase some books in Kindle format, but the bulk of my Bible study books are in Logos or other Bible software formats, plus I've also purchased some books in Apple Books format, which Kindle obviously cannot natively read due to DRM and the different formats.
1. What would be the easiest way to get Logos books (or other non-Kindle format books) onto a Kindle device? Would PDF be the best route to go? I would probably need to send book files to the Kindle in batches (possibly per-chapter) to work around copyright restrictions.
6. Are there any advantages to reading exported Logos books on a Kindle device versus a 10.5" iPad Pro? I love my iPad Pro, and it does an excellent job for reading, as well as for getting some work done on the go (where I haven't needed to carry a notebook with me most places now). However, the 10.5" iPad Pro is a large, bright screen, and battery life still needs to be charged at least once a day, plus with the other apps and notifications, it's easy to rabbit trail unless I switch on DND.
If you mean the later, you would not need to convert anything... you would simply run the FL Android apps. If you mean the former, there are tutorials for converting Logos books. It isnt hard, but it isnt "push a button" quick either. NOTE: having a Logos book on a Kindle eInk device is great for simple reading, but you can't transfer notes/highlights back.
Whether you're talking about a Kindle Fire type of device or a Kindle eInk reader (seems obvious you must mean this latter option though), I would say don't bother. It isn't worth it if you already have an iPad Pro.
