There is a very old Kindle format known as Topaz (extension .tpz if you download from Devices & Content). Perhaps this is what are dealing with.

As it happens I tried converting one in my calibre library just a few days ago, and TPZ is not supported for conversion, or else DRM was not successfully removed when I added it.

I re-downloaded from Content & Devices (still TPZ), but calibre stores it as HTMLZ, and it converts.

So something in the Add toolchain changed along the way: TPZ gets changed to HTMLZ.
