If not, well, then you can do what you should have done in the first place. Even a lousy browser like Internet Explorer can still save as "Web Page, complete", which calibre can certainly handle fine and which you did not in fact do!
Instead you saved as a "Web Archive, Single File", which is a Microsoft-specific format and it is therefore completely unsurprising that calibre doesn't know how to handle it.

calibre can import HTML files, and will automatically collect referenced resources and pack it into an HTMLZ ebook. You can have calibre set to auto-convert added books to another format -- e.g. EPUB.

Why? Because I have a lot of previous saved pages that were stored as mht for single file convenience that it would have been easier to convert rather that going through each one, and resaving as separate html and folder.
Also, on the tests I have done with just converting HTML, Calibre is completely messing it up. For example, during the conversion to HTML, the different background colours "leak" into areas they shouldn't.

No, my original question was correct. See above. The ePubPress was just a test. I would rather not go through all my existing files re-doing them if I can.
