no point in restarting just for a change in local.cf.  just send it a
SIGHUP.  running through daemontools makes it easy...

# svc -t /service/spamd

or do it yourself...  kill -HUP <pid_of_spamd>
make sure you HUP the parent process, owned by root.  there may be some
spamd children running around owned by nobody and if you HUP them it
wont help.

redhat-rc-script.sh should probably have a 'reload' option that sends a
SIGHUP... but since i use daemontools to keep my spamd alive, i really
dont care.
