Sam,

Thanks. I think I got the idea for items (2) and (3).

But for number 1, the error occured when I try to run the default init
script provided in Courier website, installation section. While I run it, it
will cause another server ESMTPD service not running and cause
"courieresmtpd: [ID 702911 mail.info] gdbm fatal: read error"
I try to start courierd, esmtpd, pop3d and courierfilter, then it is okay.

Do you which section of the service in init script might caused this?
I tried to command 1 section by 1 section in init script, but no avail.


Rgrds,
Vincent

Sharing the etc directory between servers should not be a problem, as long
as you understand the consequences.  You have not provided sufficient
information.  For starters, normally courieresmtpd doesn't even run until
there's an actual client connection, so at the very least you should've
disclosed what ESMTP commands result in the crash.

Write a shell script to do that.

Write another shell script, or, modify whichever process creates a new
account to also install a stock greeting message in the newly-created
Maildir/new.
