How did you create the mobi file? If you send an old style mobi, then yes, that will happen. There are many ways to fix this, though. If you want to convert using Calibre, then you can change the mobi file type to "both" in the MOBI output section of the conversion dialog. (See attached picture for an example of the setting) You can also take an epub and change the file extension from .epub to .png and send that using the Send to Kindle app. Or, you can do what I do, and use kindlegen to create the mobi file. I used to use Calibre, but when Amazon started messing with the email to Kindle function (changing the author to be the email address of the sender), I started using kindlegen and Send to Kindle instead.
