Well, emailing a file--a MOBI, typically still and yet--to a Kindle always produces a substandard view. You've mentioned that the customer/client/friend makes "meaningless alterations," but haven't explained how, which could/would have an effect, as well.

I test books on our inhouse devices all the time and I've never--never--had an experience like you've described, certainly not in the last...12 years or so. So, something else is afoot. Not sure what it is, but really, that weirdness with the paras, etc. oughtn't be happening.
