Changing FQN of qmail server

Hi Guys,

I have built a test server comprising:

qmail 1.03 (With some standard patches, qmailqueue and SMTP authentication
ucspi-tcp, daemontools and an enhanced qmail logging
EZmlm, Vpopmail, Vqadmin, Qmailadmin
Courier-imap/imap-ssl
Squirrelmail
Qmail-scanner, SpamAssassin and Clam Anit-Virus.

Most of this was built based on the excellent instructions from
the "www.qmailrocks.org" site.

Everything was built based on using the FQN "mail2.mydomain.com"

That test server is working very well and I am ready to put it
into production. To do this I need to change the FQN name of the
server to "mail.mydomain.com"

Is it as simple as changing every occurence of "mail2.mydomain.com"
to "mail.mydomain.com" within the qmail files and a couple of places
in the supervise scripts?

I do not recall any place else where these things need to change
but am not sure. Note that most of the packages were built
from source with settings suggested on the "www.qmailrocks.org" page.

Any one else tried to change the FQN in such a setup?
