pkgsrc/mk/install/install is the file which is called to add users from
pkgsrc.
anyway, is there any reason why you cannot simply delete /var/qmail and
try to build pkgsrc/mail/qmail from scratch? (even uninstall
qmail-users)? (don't forget to remove these users by hand as is noted
there). this would be probably the most effective way.
or you can add them by hand, check qmail-users's Makefile for details.
