Have you tried taking the output file and running
it through mobi2mobi with the --delexthtype Author option?
If there are two Author EXTH entries, it might be that the first pass will delete one, and the next pass will delete the other.

On the Kindle, the author shows up as "MobileReference and <whoever>, with the <whoever> getting truncated by the display.
I'm trying to use mobi2mobi.exe from the command prompt to clean this up, using "--delexthtype Author", intending to then add back the real author. But the deletion step doesn't seem to work.
The output from the program includes "Deleting extended header data of type: Author", so it's parsing my command line input properly. But the resulting file still has both of the two Author headers.
Has anyone tried this? Or is there some other way to do this?
