After much digging the last time a new version came out and I had the
same problem I found this method on the net to rebuild an rpm and then
install it.

rpm --install whatever.src.rpm
cd /usr/src/redhat
rpm -ba SPECS/whatever.spec
rpm --install RPMS/i386/whatever.i386.rpm

The above works good for a new install, but for an upgrade here's what I
just did and it seemed to work ok. Only change from the above is the -U
for upgrade on the third rpm command.

rpm --install http://www.xmailserver.org/xmail-1.2-1.src.rpm
cd /usr/src/redhat
rpm -ba SPECS/xmail.spec
rpm -U RPMS/i386/xmail-1.2-1.i386.rpm

For me xmail didn't restart so I did the following

mkdir /var/MailRoot/cmdaliases     needed for V1.2
/etc/rc.d/init.d/xmail start

Bill

ps. doc guys this may be good to include.
