How to roll back to an earlier version?

We installed psa-atmail 1.03 to take care of an IE bug only to find that 1.03 is completely riddled with bugs. We would like to roll back to 1.02. Is such a thing possible? I am thinking it's a little tough to do without removing it entirely and reinstalling, am I right? Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

With rpms, theres two ways to do it. The brute force way:

rpm -Uvh --oldpackage name-of-old.rpm

The surgeon way:

rpm -Uvh --repackage new-package-you-dont-want.rpm

rpm -e --repackage foo

rpm -Uvh --rollback '16 hours ago'

Heres a good article explaining this concept:

yum remove psa-atmail-1.03-2.el5.art

Then login to Plesk go to the Plesk Updater and install the atmail component again. It will install the standard Plesk version:

psa-atmail-1.02-cos5.build92090714.19
