Just create it as one of your standard user accounts and remove
any IPL, LINK or MDISK statements your standard users get. A
LISTSERV mailbox ID only needs a USER card and a SPOOL 00C 2540
READER A card in the directory entry to work; we just create a
standard user and set it's password to something impossible to
type from the keyboard.
