I agree, our postal service amazes me at their quickness. I gave some love back to our mail carrier. I replaced the crusty leaning mail box with dented non closable lid for a nice new large one. I got some nice metal letters for the post. I googled the correct SOP for mailbox placement and height. I saw that it should be be between 42" to 48" from mailbox bottom to ground. I was tickled because I am tall and hate bending over. I looked down the street and see everyone with 36" or sometimes lower height. I can bet the postal deliverers have back problems. She said she thinks my mail box is the perfect height! I am glad that I could show my appreciation in a practical way.
