As long as you've installed the Apprentice Alf plugin for calibre you need to drag-drop the file into calibre's main library screen (to remove DRM) then convert your liberated MOBI or KF8(AZW3) to EPUB. If you want to get the best from your Kobo you should also correct and/or add any missing metadata in the calibre library. Then you can connect the Kobo via USB and use calibre's send-to-device to sideload the EPUB.
That's what I do. Except for the 'Transfer via USB'. I just use an older version of Kindle for PC and download the books by right clicking the cover and choosing 'Download'. They download as AZW3. A quick transfer to Calibre with Alf and I have DRM free books that I convert and send to my Kobo.
