Kindle is not sending ebooks that I've uploaded via Gmail to my Kindle device for some reason. I get an E999 or Send to Kindle Internal Error meaning that the document(s) could not be delivered due to an internal error. Please try sending your document(s) again in some time. The documents were in epub format and in the past there has been no problem with that. Gemini suggested that my device, a 6th Generation Kindle Paperwhite, was too old but other sources say that shouldn't be a problem.
I sideloaded the epub books from my laptop to the Kindle but they failed to register. However, I used Calibre to convert the books to AZW3 format and all was well. Lesson learned. Clearly Amazon makes this conversion online before sending the files to your Kindle. Once again, Calibre proves its usefulness and reminds me that I really should back up my library that resides on an SD card external to my laptop.
