the qmail init script, for instance, /etc/init.d/qmail, copy the tcpserver
line and alter the port:

(listens on port 25)
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -P -H -R -u 64011 -g 101 0 smtp
/usr/local/bin/tcpcontrol /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd &

(listens on port 666)
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -P -H -R -u 64011 -g 101 0 666
/usr/local/bin/tcpcontrol /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd &
