I had somewhat the same problem. I ended up setting up the following work flow:

Import my files into Open Office. Setting up my headings that I wanted to index and not worrying about page breaks. Save the resultant file as an ODT (Open Office file ext).

Add the above file to your Calibre library and convert the file to an epub.

Read your epub into into Sigil and set up your TOC and page breaks.

Take your edited epub back into Calibre and convert into mobi.

This sounds a lot harder than it is and it work. Although, I would find a small text file to practice on since things don't always work the way we expect.

Hope this helps.
