Is there a module for orchard that can send emails to subscribers with contact list, delay email sending, etc?
None that I know of, although there is a module for MailChimp mail service integration. You may want to try it out.
On the other hand, it would be very easy to write such module.

I am looking for a way to notify me by mail or anywhere when a specific email is ordering.
Example:
When a customer orders with the domain mail #test.com then i receive a notification by mail or somewhere compatible.
Best Regards.
I have tried looking for a plugin, but have not found anything usefull.
Bit confused on the pro's and con's of using some of these services when it comes to transactional emails via a website. I was using basic php to send the mail, but it seems to be getting blocked by some of the recipients spam filters. So I am looking at alternatives which include setting up it up to send via the cPanel's email service or using a delivery service like mailgun or maybe setting up an office 365 plan.
From what I've read email through an office 365 plan is often blocked as well, plus its another monthly fee so that's not ideal. So that leaves me with cPanel service or mailgun. I currently set it up to use mailgun and I'm pretty happy with it, but is cPanel service just as good? Is it really true SMTP and does it have just as good delivery rates? Theres also the issue with cPanel being if the web server goes down the email goes down, so that's another reason why I'm shying away from it.
cPanel's option will send via your local mail exchanger, EXIM, which isn't much different from sending through PHP. If you're going to send any sort of newsletter or bulk message, you really should use a delivery provider like MailGun or SendGrid and setup a subdomain like news.example.com, so that your primary domain's reputation doesn't become damaged.
I personally use Sendgrid if our website is having issues sending emails, or getting blocked by spam filters. I've yet to have any problems with it. If it's just for one website, and it isn't huge, the free plan should suffice. Various SMTP plugins support it these days, such as Post SMTP.
I am looking for a module / plugin Drupal that will send automatically e-mail newsletter every tot minutes and only when there are new articles.
Is this a good one to do that ?
https://drupal.org/project/newsletter
The Simplenews module will do that: https://drupal.org/project/simplenews . It has rules integration that will allow you to send the newsletters out automatically.
You may also want to set up Mandrill account and use the Mandrill module https://drupal.org/project/mandrill if you're going to be sending out a lot of e-mails.
I want to migrate my email subscribers from Feedburner to MailChimp but couldn't find any relevant guide.
Is there any way to migrate existing subscribers to MailChimp without requiring them to re-validate their email addresses?
If you can export the list from Feedburner in CSV/Excel format, you can use Mailchimp to import the list. Subscribers don't have to re-validate their email address. This article will help.

I need email notifications for multiple content types, and for the content type's CCK fields to be included in the email. I also need the emails to be sent straight away, not on the next cron run.
The 2 main modules for email notifications are Notifications and Subscriptions. Subscriptions allows different messaging templates for different content types, but it cant send emails straight away. As I need emails to be sent very quickly (even 15 mins is too long), I would need to run my cron every 5 minuets or so. Even though this site is very low traffic, as im on shared hosting im guessing this isnt a good idea?
The Notifications module can send emails immediately. However you dont have different email templates for different content types. If I include the token for a CCK field not available in that content type, then the token text is sent in the email.
Any ideas on a solution?
Thanks
Not a solution, just an idea for you to research.
Have you tried the Rules module?
