SIGHUP does not tell citserver to reread its configuration. When you send citserver a SIGHUP, it *stops running*. In your case it's automatically restarting, but you can't do this because when it gets that signal it stops what it was doing, aborts any database operations that are in progress, drops any client connections, etc. etc. etc. The "POP3 polling frequency" configuration item definitely is where you want to be setting this.
