No RPM's?  I'm using RPM's. ?  With 1.2.7final ...  I'm positive I got
them from the bincimap site...

*looking*

*OH* ...  I know what I did now ...  get the source RPM and just do an
rpmbuild on it...   Not sure if you know how to do this or not, so the
basics are below ...

Get the source here :

http://www.bincimap.org/dl/SRPMS/1.2/bincimap-1.2.7final-1.src.rpm

Then "install" it via rpm : rpm -ivh bincimap-1.2.7final-1.src.rpm

And finally, go into the rpm SPECS directory (/usr/src/redhat/SPECS
here) and build it :

rpmbuild -bb bincimap.spec

Assuming you have the correct development libraries installed, it should
compile without a problem .. then you can just install the rpm ... 
worked great here..  :)
