Tim,


	Although we would grant the rights a little differently (we usually 
grant SeeQueue along with ShowTicket and grant SeeOutgoingMail to 
everyone on a global basis), I was wondering if the any of the users 
(your requestors) are set up as privileged users. If not, then the 
rights you grant to roles won't be applied to them as users.
