As the relevant user - Settings -> RT at a Glance, although if they
don't have ModifySelf they may not be able to get there and you may
need to go look in the Attributes table for rows with a name of
Pref-HomepageSettings and then use /opt/rt4/sbin/rt-attributes-viewer
with the id of the row to see what user has an override.
