Try typing netstat -ta , it will show every service listening for a
connection. The only thing that should be in the /var/qmail/rc is the
qmail-start command and etc. Look in /var/qmail/boot for examples. Your
pop3d and smtpd should be started from your local scripts or placed where
your previous ones were started from. They would be in /etc/rc.d .
