Answer 1

Postal address are stored like all the other info in the DATA table with a

MIMEtype == ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.StructuredPostal.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE

Please google ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.StructuredPostalto find all the info.

If you need to know how to edit a contact in general I would suggest you to have a look to the SampleSyncAdapter in the Android SDK. It is a sync adapter so you don't need to study everything but updateContact in ContactManager is a good point to start with.
