Yes, I have had this happen as well. If I get this warning (usually when opening an epub that has been Kindleunpacked via Calibre) I immediately go and fix the header of the (usually) single html file. It usually has just <html><head> instead of the

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>


When I update the header Sigil is happy and there is no loss of data.


p.s. I'm not saying this happens all the time from Kindleunpack...most of the time they are fine... I only mention it because that is the process I use to de-stinkify my books... I fully believe that some of the files I get from Amazon aren't the easiest for kindleunpack to work with.
