How about trying to give everyone a full control over a folder and see
if it helps?
Then have the user take ownership on files in the security tab.
Then apply the SBS suggested security on each folder.

Rebuilt my SBS 2003 Premium SP2 And was only able to restore the
Information Store.  Have only created 4 user and computer accounts
(doing it slow and one at a time).  Had a tough time (see other posts
today) with some issues and thought all was well, but the 3 users (I'm
the 4th) have come to me lately to say they "still" can't get any
email, nor can they "see" any or their old docs in the My Docs
folders, respectively.

I'll checked and re-checked things in Serv er Management.  Checked
ADUC, file and folder permisions, share permisions, etc.

I looked over the MS doc on Moving folders in SBS, but it doesn't
address THIS situation where thbey seem to be "blind" from their
computers.  Sounds like a security thing to me, but ..... WHERE??

Would sure appreciate any ideas!

Well, I did that. Took ownership (from the server) as domain admin,
then added the user and made HIM the owner, then went over a couple
tabs and set pesmisions of full control for that person. Then back
out to the folder itself.
Each has got as much control of their folder as I think they can get.

Could be mising something, though.
