Also, it is better to clean the source in an application better suited for that than in an e-Book editor. Usually that is much faster and easier. YMMV
Thanks. I've found that Calibre-generated .mobi files are accepted into my Kindle Personal Documents using the @Kindle.com address associated w my Kindle. Agreed, cleaning up the source in a word processor is necessary before going to an eBook editor.
