Every community has a designated postal person(s). You write your letter, and give it to a postal person when they are online. The postal person then organizes the letters and delivers them (perhaps every other day, or taking turns with other people). When one postal person arrives in another town they either give the letters to the postal people there for delivery to their recipient; or directly give them to the recipient. The postal person can then log out at the end of their journey and be instantly teleported back to their starting town (maybe even taking an inventory full of letters with them).
No post office is really needed.
I think the key thing here is never leaving the letters unattended. If you leave them in an urn or chest, something bad is GOING to happen. Someone will steal them, or walk off with the urns/chests. People can not be there to monitor the PO 24/7, and therefore it will not work. As long as they are either in the author's, postman's, or recipients inventories/wagons, they are as safe as they are going to get.

Why can't that happen? It doesn't take longer than like 15-20 minutes to travel from the great northern forest down to laketown by road.
