Hi Rakesh,

1) Are you trying to create a user on the Exchange server or another server.
2) If it is another server then check whether you are able to get any exchange tabs when you open the properties of an existing user.
3) If you are on the exchange server then open the properties of the server in the exchange system manager and see if the checkbox "this is a front-end server" is not checked. if it is checked then uncheck it because front-end servers are not designed to host mailboxes

Its ok I've found where the poblem is:
It was because we creating new users by copying the existing users in Active Directory. When we create a user from scratch it works fine. So I've created a template user with no email and we will just copy that to create new users...
