Why would you like to create a mail account for an equipment?
UPS device is just sending mails and it will not read it. Just create/configure receive connector to accept mails from your UPS. In UPS software you probably can use whatever mail address you want. (like ups1@yourdomain.com)

No, you can not create email account without AD user object.
You can add as many email addresses to a functional mailbox as you like.

But still.....nobody answered it in simple yes or no.......... now i am assuming that ....maybe it is possible by creating in someway related to POP3 account or so..... i am  bit confused .
no. all exchange users with username and password are from active directory.
each of them can have any number of email adresses.
