Sending files to your Kindle
Amazon will only receive files to convert and send back to you (free) or to your Kindle from email addresses you have authorized on the Manage Your Kindle page. This is to prevent spam, and works very well. Your email address (log-in email address) associated with your Amazon account is automatically listed as an approved email address. If you are like me, and often use multiple email addresses. You can add other email addresses to the approved list in the Manage Your Kindle area. This way, no matter where you are or what email you are using, you can send your Amazon account a file to convert for your Kindle.
Experiment
Practice sending a few files to your @free.kindle.com or if you don't mind paying a little, your @kindle.com email address. It is a great way to see what an actual converted file looks like, and how it will look on your Kindle when all is said and done.
