Does anyone know how you can convert from mobi to mobi and keep the meta TOC intact? Which settings can I set?

Can you get the original files from the client? If so, maybe making it again using the higher level of compression will fix the size. If it has graphics, you could try recompressing them to a higher level if they are jpeg. If they are png, jpeg compression may help. Also lowering the bit depth if they are not full color might as well. This is of course thinking you can get the original files.
