I was hoping someone could help me with creating an email address, and using
Microsoft Outlook 2003 work with it. I do not want a web site, just the
email address.

I will use NameCheap to create my domain name. For example, lets say its
JasonVickers.com, and the email will be (e-mail address removed)

Can you tell me how, once the domain name is created, I can use Microsoft
Outlook to send and receive emails to/from that name. Do I need a webmail
client, or can I use Microsoft Outlook as my client, and use it to send and
receive emails directly?

Also, am I able to have multiple email address at Jason.Vickers.com, like
(e-mail address removed), or (e-mail address removed), using the same domain, or
do I have to pay for each email address?

Thank you for your help.

You can't just set up a domain name and email addresses in Outlook out of
thin air.
First you have to register your domain name IF it's available with the
appropriate domain name registry in your country.
You then either have to use a domain hosting company to host your domain
name and to host a mail server for you or you need to set up a mail server
on your machine.
Unless you really know what you are doing (and if your ISPs TOCs permit you
to do so - most don't) the domain host is the way to go.
 
Microsoft Outlook can be a client for POP3 and IMAP4 mail accounts. Your domain host would have to provide the mail server addresses. Whether you pay for multiple addresses depends on your agreement with the host.
