Hi, 1. No you do not have to disconnect your Time Machine volume. I didn't disconnect anything when I installed Lion, I had two external Firewire HDs and one network volume connected to my Airport Extreme for Time Machine backups and there were no issues at all. Once you choose your install destination, all the other connected devices are immaterial.
2. If you are asking about your Mail preferences and how they point to the Mail servers, then the automatic migration during upgrade to Lion will handle everything and you shouldn't have to make any changes. In fact, other than the upgrade to Lion, your OS should remember everything that it had in SL. That is, all your preferences, prior server connections, even your Safari history.
