thanks for your replies, I have worked it out with pam + krb5, now users 
pop3, imap can authenticate against AD.
Note: For arhieves I was working with pam on freebsd without any success 
from last three days (I thinks there is some known bug in pam freebsd).
Then I installed fc3 on a new box dovecot + pam + ad start working 
within an hour :)
Now i'm stuck on postfix (mta) ---> AD part :|

Thanks and regards

Askar
