Eliminate first paragraph indent after blank line?

Dear all, my name is Nico. I'm new to this forum and hope I'm posting to the right section.

I've converted a few RTF files to epubs for a Kobo reader with Calibre, and noticed that I can't suppress the indent of the first paragraph after a blank line (or a page break). I do want indents to show at the beginning of the second and all subsequent paragraphs though.

So my question is: how can I eliminate this first indent? And how can I force Calibre to insert a page break? This is how I want it to look:

<blank line / forced page break>
Text of the first paragraph. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Sed lectus lorem, pulvinar malesuada fermentum sit amet, tempus a ante. Aliquam tincidunt neque eu risus luctus, id tempus velit facilisis. Etiam ullamcorper convallis lectus, non pulvinar felis ullamcorper nec. Ut nulla erat, condimentum ac molestie id, rhoncus at nisi.
<indent>Second paragraph. Nulla faucibus diam et condimentum porttitor. Donec pretium arcu eu sem posuere, quis fringilla nunc interdum. Phasellus facilisis id justo ac vestibulum. Sed eget lectus lobortis, placerat justo a, molestie orci. Nulla facilisi. Pellentesque auctor hendrerit elit ut laoreet.
<indent>Third paragraph. Aenean et diam aliquet, malesuada mi ut, porttitor arcu. Ut tempus sapien pellentesque enim commodo, sodales pretium purus luctus. Cras maximus sapien vitae ultrices pellentesque
<etcetera>
