I've done that--Foreign Policy is one section. Running it throug ebook-convert to get an HTML version shows it's the same as a multi-section periodical, except there's only one section. In summary, the Instapaper file and the Calibre-generated file are very different--Instapaper uses H1 tags and Calibre uses ID tags to delineate articles. You seem to be suggesting Kindle auto-generates TOCs in all cases. If so, then the issue must be H1 versus ID tags, no?
