Adding new email addresses with a GoDaddy domain and Office 365

We have our domain and Microsoft 365 through GoDaddy. I need two more addresses for new staff. Do I create them in GoDaddy's panel or the Microsoft admin center, and does each one need its own license?

you don't need to touch DNS for any of this, by the way. the domain is already verified, so a new alias or mailbox on it just works straight away. a few people i know went digging through the DNS records thinking they had to add something, and broke their mail doing it.

Does it need to be a separate inbox? If it's just another address landing in your existing mailbox (info@, sales@), add it as an alias on your user. Aliases are free. A separate person who logs in needs their own mailbox, which means buying another licence. The catch with GoDaddy's version of 365 is that a lot of this is managed from GoDaddy's Email & Office dashboard rather than the Microsoft admin centre, so if an option looks greyed out on the Microsoft side, try GoDaddy's. A shared mailbox is the other free option if several of you just need to read the same inbox.
