This is an entirely legal use of lending library ebooks, but mobileread has caved to pressure from Amazon and has deleted instructions on how to use KindlePID (which you have already used) and KindleFIX (which, apparently, Amazon did not complain about). Note that Google caches some pages, so you may still be able to find the wiki page "KindleFIX Mac" somewhere or other.

You don't need to email the KindleFIXed file to Amazon. Like DRM-free MOBI ebooks, just copy it via USB to the Kindle's "documents" directory.
