This is one of the reasons why, I think you'll find, that most experienced users/producers don't use the Kindle plugin. Export to ePUB, learn to make the tweaks needed, and then drop the resulting ePUB into KindleGen/KindlePreviewer. That will result in better books and far less frustration. There's a greater learning curve, to understand more about ePUB, and, of course, ePUBs as they have to be tweaked for MOBI, but trust me, the time spent doing that is worth it, compared with trying to use the plugin for Kindle from INDD.
(n.b.: the politically-correct
thought Nazis on Wikipedia removed the incredibly useful pixel-density chart. Use something like Internet Archive or the Wayback machine to find the information for that former URL. Idiots.)
FWIW.
