N00b Questions

[The Matt]

Folks, I just downloaded Xfce4 RC1 and I really like it.  However, I
have a couple of n00b questions that I just can't seem to solve.

First, how do I get xfce4 to use my ~/.xfce4/xinitrc file?  Looking at
the Xfce doc pages, I learned to copy /etc/xfce4/xinitrc to ~/.xfce4. 
Great.  Then, I looked at /usr/bin/startxfce4 and I see that it should
read ~/.xfce4/xinitrc which I have altered.  Yet, for some reason it
won't.  I'm trying to use the iconbox, so I added it to the xinitrc. 
But, when I run startxfce4...no iconbox.  Help me out please.

Second, I'm sure this is a FAQ, but is there a way to get the mailcheck
to read a remote IMAP mailbox?

Thanks for any help you can give this newbie.
