HELP!!! I have set up my google base acct. Followed #34 in the tutorials

went to google to manually install data feed .xml Disapproved Then I received this e-mail--- It's all Greek to Me.
Was I suppose to change something on my site map? or is it in the wrong place? I have been at this problem for 2 days trying to figure it out.
I'm not very experienced at this. If there is a resolution please I need a step by step instruction. For You people this maybe simple for me!! A Challenge. THANKS
