They don't need to be writable by nofiles (but it doesn't matter 
anyway).

Now this is interesting. Why indeed does bash think it should use 
a .bashrc in /home/jobu? You are running smtp as qmaild, aren't 
you? What's qmaild's home directory?

That's exactly what you should be seeing - that's what tcpserver -v 
does.

Yes, but why does qmaild need to look into ~jobu?

If you want to have more logging, you need to patch (preferably) 
checkpassword to output the username and/or authentication 
status to stderr (or stdout?). There was no logging intended AFAIK.
