If you're running BSD-based system (linux, *BSD)
killall -HUP qmail-send
is what you need. If you're running SysV-based system, don't ever
try that and do
kill -SIGHUP `pidof qmail-send`
instead.

You don't HUP qmail-smtpd - it gets respawned for every
connection. And you don't HUP tcpeserver - the only config it uses
is that -x something.cdb file and if gets re-read everytime a
connection arrives.
You only HUP qmail-send.
