On the mobi forum here, look for KindleUnpack. That will extract stuff to HTML that you can figure stuff out from. Also calibre has a debug feature which will save off the HTML in the various stages of conversion if that is useful. Calibre does indeed generate periodical format as part of its 'subscription' feature.

I'm assuming that by POBI, you mean the mobi format used for periodicals (which is not kf8). The Mobipocket website is still up and running and you can go there for descriptions of the tagging for mobi format: www.mobipocket.com/dev/.
