I believe this is coming from a newsgroup mirror at compgroups.net which
allows posting.

This is the first entry I found after searching for comp.os.vms, from

Trying to post a reply asks you to sign in or register.  Registering
claims to have sent you a login email, but nothing has appeared here.
