Simple: From a VMS system with the PSI option. In the UK, such a system
would be cabled to PSS; PSS will automatically route the call through
the appropriate X.75 gateway to TELENET.

Wile it may be possible to bridge from SMTP to PSI on a VMS system with
both TCP/IP and PSI installed, such a hybrid would be fairly rare, and
you should not expect anybody to come forward and announce their
willingness to pay to do this for you.

But if your VMS system has PSI, the address will work as written.
