This depends on if you're using SMTP for your emails or Gmail. You can find information about setting up SMTP here, and Gmail here.

Incoming email is the address that will be shown to users, although this isn't actually used anywhere yet. Basically, in the future, if there is a contact us page the incoming email will be shown on there.

Outgoing email is the email address emails from your website are sent from, although if you're using the SMTP/Gmail address defined in core/config.php, this won't do anything.

Could I disable the email part then since it does not do anything?

Emails are required for account validation and the forgot password function, so having emails disabled would cause issues.
