If you are creating users with just email accounts then how are they going to access their email boxes? Exchange in SBS is licensed differently to exchange in general. If you create a normal user then either a per user or per device license is required. If you create a mailbox for say a room for scheduling meeting then it is neither of the above cases and requires no license. If you create 20 users and only let them log on locally to 1 desktop to check their emails then they only need one device license in total - there is an MS case study of 300 users accounts on one SBS box.
If you are setting up email forwarding then you only need to add external mailboxes into AD and set the accounts to forward them on. The account templates process is designed to create full users and then limit their rights, so you could create a security group which prevents them from logging on, and then create a template where they are a member of that group.
