Added the Sitemap module today - all went well, except WMT seems to be under the impression it's an html file, and returns 35 errors......which is dull.

sitemap url is:
your-site.com/sitemap.xml

--edit--
Try clicking on that link in WMT and see if you get an XML page.

Its working for jamroom.net

Then Google is looking at an old/incorrect sitemap - give it time and it should correct itself.
