John,
  Chances are that the USRPRF has MSGQ(blahblah) DLVRY(*BREAK).  If you 
were to make it (*HOLD), then the message queue would not be allocated to 
any jobs.  Of course, then it won't *BREAK, either...  Users aren't 
complete idiots: they should be able to understand the difference between 
informational messages and inquiry messages, don't you think?
