For information on which program reads which control file, try 
"man qmail-control".  This will tell you that qmail-smtpd reads rcpthosts.
As it's a transient daemon, the next invocation will read a fresh copy; no
problem.  Virtualhosts is read by qmail-send.  As the man-page for
qmail-send says, send it a HUP and it will re-read virtualhosts (and
locals).
