From the rpmbuild manpage: -ba Build binary and source packages (after doing the %prep, %build, and %install stages). -bb Build a binary package (after doing the %prep, %build, and %install stages). -bs Build just the source package. We use -ba when rolling our RPMs. -bs would be suitable if you *only* want a Source RPM. If you can build the RPM (it sounds like you were successful) then the SRPM should be no problem. I've tried the procedure from the aforementioned link (http://www.kutukupret.com/2010/02/08/compiling-postfix-2-7-0-as-rpm-package/) and had no problems building the RPMs. I haven't tested the RPMs yet.
