The word "listserv" copyrighted?

[Eric Nudell]

My boss is under the impression that the word "listserv" is copyrighted and
has forbidden us to use it in our documentation. We have invented words like
"e-list" or "electronic list" to refer to a listserv.

I still see the rest of the world using listserv. Has anyone else heard of
"listserv" being copyrighted?
