According to the ticket you cite the margins in the epub need to be cleaned up prior to conversion. Use Sigil to change the margins, save it and convert it again. Info on Sigil (epub editor) can be found in the Sigil forum.
so I did what you said, I changed the epub's css file and everything, but after conversion, it still added a left margin of 1em in the Mobi file...why did it get added automatically?
