It's not in the metadata. It's probably
tied to a unique identifier in the metadata, but it's definitely a feature of the app and not the MOBI ebook file itself.

I forgot to mention I am running Ubuntu and mobipocket through Wine. I had tried the "click on the column header" before and it didn't work. I retried it again and it still doesn't. That's a problem with trying to run Windows programs on Linux generally, I've found, but there isn't really a comparable program to mobipocket that I like for Linux that I have found.

I've not experimented with Mobipocket Reader under WINE (I only know the MP
Creator doesn't play nice), but I know Amazon's Kindle for PC will run flawlessly under relatively recent versions of WINE.
