  Hi Ken,
  
  1.  The price is per mailbox.  So if you want to maintain 10 seperate mailboxes you'd need 10 accounts.  If you wanted to go with 3 accounts, you could assign multiple email addresses to each account, so 1 account could receive email for multiple email addresses, but outbound messages from that mailbox would always come from the primary SMTP addresses.  Also, I should note that the minimum number of mailboxes you can purchase is 5.
  
  2.  I'm not sure I quite understand this question. Typically you'd sign up the company for Microsoft Online.  You would then create your user accounts within the company's subscription.  You could centrally administer them and the Address book would show all users.
  
  3.  Adding additional domains to your Microsoft Online account is pretty easy, you'll just need to verify that you do indeed own the domains, which is accomplished by adding a Cname record to your existing DNS for the domain.  POP3 and IMAP is also pretty easy using the transporter.  The hardest part there is rounding up the passwords for the all POP3 and IMAP users (assuming you don't have a single account which has access to all mailboxes).
  
  4.  Users within your organization would be able to Share calendar and Contact information.  So each user could delegate access to the Caledar and contacts to other users within your organization, assuming they are also on the same Microsoft Online subscription.
