It shouldn't be possible to open the file if you're talking about the original ePub format book here. The Kindle isn't able to read ePubs.
(The original format
is ePub, right?)

Manichean-If I open the file directly from Sigil the TOC shows up on the left side as well as in the TOC Editor. Then if I add the file to Calibre and then open the file in my Calibre library with Sigil the TOC is gone from the left side as well as any entries in the TOC Editor.

I don't know enough about Sigil to comment on that, but I still highly doubt that importing the file into Calibre could somehow wipe out the TOC. Importing the file is really all you do? After you've opened the file in Sigil the first time, do you, by any chance, save it before closing and importing?

Converting the epub to mobi does nothing with the TOC. In other words its not there.

This is rather unsurprising, depending on the XPath expressions you set in chapter detection- if there is no TOC in the file, it can, of course, not be converted.
