Is this user just an arbitrary set of numbers? Could I assign p-123456 @mydomain.com to act as the send to address? I am a little confused on this. Also is it possible to alias the p-xxx email adress to a more user friendly email. like submissions@mydomain.com?

It's a unique hexadecimal number that identifies the sender. So each sender gets their own address. You could of course let submissions@domain.com work as well but if everybody uses that you would have to change how you identify a user, such by looking at the from-address for instance or something else.
