Legitimate businesses threaten our e-mail system with their misguided marketing efforts.
Simson Garfinkel L ast week I received an e-mail message from Caldera Systems. Caldera Systems' OpenLinux eDesktop 2.4 is chock full of goodies to make your connection to the World Wide Web a craving like none other. If I were obsessed with anything, it wasn't whatever new version of its operating system that Caldera happened to be pushing.

I called up Caldera spokeswoman Nancy Pomeroy.
