This is a question I think have been answered a gozillion times in the
past, but here we go again:
You have to put it in your .xinitrc or .xsession like this:
sleep 1 && exec bbkeys &
sleep 1 && exec bbmail &
exec blackbox
The sleeps are there in order to get blackbox to start up before the
helper programs.
