More to the point, portupgrade doesn't stop it.  pkg_delete does,
because stopping it is in the plist.  e.g., for spamassassin:

% grep sa-spamd /var/db/pkg/p5-Mail-SpamAssassin-3.1.5/+CONTENTS | grep stop
@unexec %D/etc/rc.d/sa-spamd.sh stop > /dev/null 2>&1 || true
@unexec %D/etc/rc.d/sa-spamd stop > /dev/null 2>&1 || true
