That's partially true, since the browser will act depending on the MIME type set by the (host) server.
In particular, it seems to me that the OP's server is not serving the correct MIME type for EPUBs (and maybe for MOBIs as well), since my Firefox+Lucifox does not open up (as it does with EPUB URLs from properly-configured servers) when I follow the file links. Indeed, the server labels the EPUB URL as 'text/plain' instead of 'application/epub+zip'.
