That lets them log on using whatever username you give and will take an email addy for a password. They are not allowed to write to any directory.
The trick is to have the ftp look in a directory that's not in /var/ftp. You can use another directory as ftp document root, but I think you have to"mount" it as that. See http://proftpd.linux.co.uk/localsite/Userguide/linked/chroot-symlinks.html for instructions on that.
