If you only have one server, and that server is only talking http then
yes there is only a single cache_peer..

You can configure the password in squid.conf if the PEM key is
encrypted, or easily decrypt it with the openssl rsa command.

Correct.

In https_port defaultsite you should use mail.odhiambo.COM as this is
what the clients are expected to connect to.

The ip of your exchange/owa server.

Ignore. That example uses a setup with more Exchange servers, where OWA
is running on a separarate server from Exchange.

Ignore as above.

Since you are not going to use a real certificate then issue yourself a
self-signed one using OpenSSL.

  openssl req -new -x509 -days 10000 -nodes -out mail.odhiambo.COM_selfsigned.pem -keyout mail.odhiambo.COM_key.pem
