Finally figured out for Mac OS X 10.5 and later, after looking at few
examples. For those who are interested the steps copying the file
qmail.plist with the below content in the
directory /System/Library/LaunchDaemons.

cat > /system/Library/Launchdaemons/qmail.plist <<end
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN"
"http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyLis
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>Label</key>
<string>qmail</string>
<key>KeepAlive</key>
<true/>
<key>Program</key>
<string>/var/qmail/bin/svscanboot</string>
<key>ProgramArguments</key>
<array>
<string>svscan</string>
</array>
</dict>
</plist>
end

to start qmail
cd /System/Library/LauncDaemons
sudo launchctl
% load qmail.plist
