From what I know:
c) Posted.
d) Yes.
e) I think you'll have to cut it up and send to a certain address, so first option.

a. Usually it should arrive within 1 week of receiving approval email depending on where you live. TNT/Fedex delivers it.
b. No. Super priority only speeds up visa approval. Sometimes even priority will give you next day approval and save you £300 (my experience, not guaranteed).
