don't restart svscan, do something like the following
svc -d /service/qmail-send /service/qmtpd /service/smtpd \
/service/qmail-send/log /service/qmtpd/log /service/smtpd/log
wait for the processes to die off and then do something like
svc -u /service/qmail-send /service/qmtpd /service/smtpd \
/service/qmail-send/log /service/qmtpd/log /service/smtpd/log
[I dont run a pop3d, but someone with a clue should be able to figure
out the additional magic]
