Ahhh... OK. The $9.88 per year price is for one email mailbox and one alias. You can have multiple email mailboxes per domain. I current pay two times $9.88 per year for two mailboxes in my domain. Each of those mailboxes has the one main address and an alias. One nice aspect is that I can apportion the storage space as I want between the mailboxes I purchased. My understanding is that you can have as many email mailboxes per domain as you are willing to pay $9.88 per year for. Hope this helps.
