I confess to not understanding how the calendar program code is
supposed to work. I may have confused it by using the same user id
for two different password file entries. I noticed, for example, that
lines from one user's calendar file were sometimes mailed to the other
user.
I have since given up on running "calendar -a" via the /etc/periodic
mechanism and now just run calendar for myself out of my own crontab.
So far this seems to work.
