Are you sure the MOBI has DRM? Encryption type 0 means no DRM.

If it is encrypted, it might be a "content encrypted" ebook. In other words, it has encryption but only using the generic MOBI key (not a PID-specific key). This means that can be read by any MobiPocket Reader software, on any device, but not by any non-MobiPocket software. To check for this, open the ebook with Windows MobiPocket Reader, right click in the library view and select Properties -> Summary and it will be listed as Content Encrypted. There is a version of mobidedrm.py that strips content encryption, see Mobipocket Decoder Tool #176.
