Yes, by mistake I uploaded a src.rpm that builds a static package (did
this for 1.2.2 also). It should of course build a dynamic package.

You can work around the problem by downloading a tarball, unpacking it and 
removing "--enable-static" from bincimap-1.2.3/bincimap.spec. Then pack 
the tarball together again and rebuild the package with "rpmbuild -ta 
bincimap-1.2.3.tar.gz" or "rpm -ta bincimap-1.2.3.tar.gz".

Sorry for the inconvenience :-).
