How can I run an application (Letter Rip Pro) when OS X Server

You don't. You have user apps start as login items when a /user/ logs in.
The application runs when I log in as a user. I want it to run
without logging in as a user.
It depends on the application. If ti requires a user session or UI
then it probably isn't going to run without a login. Often people
see this as the difference between a "application" and a "service".
The best, yet nasty, solution to this sort of thing is to have the
server autologin as a non-admin user and have the screen lock.
Sounds like Letter Rip is an Carbon or Cocoa Application that
requires a user session to run.
However, LetterRip is just a mailing list manager (and as I recall a
pretty poor one at that), and OS X Server includes the vastly
superior Gnu MailMan for this already. Letter Rip's bounce processing
was always poor as I remember, and the whole operational process was
clumbsy.
Check out MailMan, you already have it and it's far superior.
