Note that unless you're having everyone used Kerberized POP, having your
POP passwords the same as you Kerberos passwords defeats the entire point
of Kerberos. So I would either say make them different, or force everyone
to use Kerberized POP (which may not be policially feasable).

Can't help you on this one, sorry.
