Long usernames
--------------
I don't know what constraints will be set for usernames in VMS
5.0. But.. generally speaking it is better to limit usernames
to 9 characters. Or at least make them unique in the first 9
character-positions. EARN/BITNET takes the first username
which matches in the first 9 characters of the username for an
incoming message.
