Note that to separate two authors in calibre you must use the ampersand character and not the word 'and'.

Just for interest, how are you putting the comma back in? I am just wondering, because if it is via the metadata dialog, and you are using the option to look up metadata from the web it could be the server that is reversing the order?

The comma being converted to the vertical bar character might well be a bug. Guess we need to wait until Kovid is online to comment.

I would be very happy if at some time clibre has the option to store author names in the reverse order. I think this is on the list of things for Kovid to do in the future, but it is a non-trivial change and so is unlikely to appear in the near future.
