I still don't think you're following the directions. Your posting address
appears to be set to "NO_SPAM" and that is not one of the valid choices from
the registration page that I have pointed out a couple of times, there's no
domain listed. I'm including the directions again below. Please choose a
nickname and enter it in the nickname box (and it would be a very good idea
to make it more unique than "NO_SPAM" and then pick one of the domains from
the choose a domain drop-down list box. Then after as it's registered,
you'll need to use that full email address as your posting address. This
isn't a free service so we need to make it unique enough to ensure that
you're the only one using that alias.

1. Use the passport associated with your MSDN subscription to login at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/subscriptions/.
2. On the What's Hot tab, click the <here> link at the end of the first
paragraph of the "Unlimited Support" section, which takes you to the
registration page.
3. Pick a nickname and domain. For example, you could use johndoe for the
Nickname and @nospam.nospam as the domain. Click the [Submit] button and it
should register johndoe@nospam.nospam as your no-spam alias. That alias may
or may not be available. We are experiencing an intermittent problem with
this page where a link goes down and rejects all submissions. If the alias
you select gets rejected, please try waiting 10-15 minutes before trying
again.

When you successfully register we attempt to popup a page with more
information. It explains how to configure your profile, among other things.
If you have popups blocked, the link is:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/subscriptions/managednewsgroups/

Once you've successfully registered your account, you'll need to start
posting using it, not the <NO_SPAM> address you used again for this post.

Mitch should be following up with you today via email.
