The MOBI file opened in the E-book Viewer, and looks, as far as I can see, just like the EPUB one - there's a slight difference in the page numbers, but all the chapter headings look the same.

Anyhoo, I imported one of the 'bad' files, and tried out that MOBI and it's one, apparently blank, page. When I convert it, I then get the cover, followed by one blank page. 'Sweird!
Actually, the calibre viewer doesn't open mobis. It's basically an epub viewer that can open other formats by converting them. Your mobi is converted to epub, and then opened for viewing.

Have you tried opening up the imported mobis in KindlePreviewer or K4PC/mac?
