Title comes out as garbage in content list!

A couple of weeks ago I bought my first book from Smashword in .mobi format. When I transfer this book to my Kindle the Title in the Content list turns up as garbage (tmp_aa40...).

The file name looks ok on my computer and looks ok in the documents folder on the Kindle from the computer. However when I detach the Kindle from the computer the title isn't the same as the file name. Instead it shows tmp_aa40... as a title. I've tried to change the file name and then transfer it but to little avail

Has anyone experienced this with there Kindle? Is this problem related to book formatting? This is the first time I've experienced that the title of a book doesn't show correctly.
