How do I get the series name and volume number to stick?
I'm confused at what exactly failed. Is the series information for the original book/entry correct in the Calibre library?

Don't open the exported/saved to disk file in Calibre. Open it in your Kindle and see if everything looks good there. Or just use Send to device to send books directly to your Kindle.
