Just install the src rpm like a normal binary rpm, 'rpm -ivh
mimedefang-2.37.tar.gz'. It will install all of the source into
/usr/src/<blah>/SOURCES and the .spec file into /usr/src/<blash>/SPECS
directory. 

The directory <blah> varies depends on the distribution. redhat =
redhat, SuSE = packages are the two I know. Just rumage around /usr/src/
and look for a directory with BUILD, RPMS, SRPMS, SOURCES, and SPECS
directories. It shouldn't be hard to find.
