@Hitch: that's pretty-much what I assumed the OP was talking about.
I didn't know for sure that kindlegen would strip blank content, but I suspected as much. I just knew it wasn't Sigil. I found it a little odd that the OP didn't examine each phase of the process (ODT looks good; epub looks okay; oops! mobi's F'd up) instead of blasting straight through to mobi and wondering where things went pear-shaped.

So in short: you can add all the extra "blank" pages to your epub that you want using Sigil--no tricks required. But you'll need to fool Kindlegen into believing the extra blank pages contain some sort of actual content (if you don't want them chucked from the resulting kindlebook). That about the gist?
