Greetings Paddy! Nice to hear from one of our most tenured community members. My name is Tom, I am known as HD 116 here and on various other DIY sites on the Internet and a fellow founding member. I just saw the mailbox post you purchased and it is gorgeous. Neither the post or mailbox comes with a mounting bracket, but there is a universal mounting bracket that is available at your local store. A link and a description to it follows here; I am happy to help and again, thanks so much for being a valued member of our community.
Hi Tom, Thanks for the reply. I found this product yesterday and decided it probably wasn't worth buying. The mailbox post has an 'arm' section which the mailbox it then mounted to.
Perhaps I could still use the bracket and flatten the edges where it is meant to fit onto the 4'x4'. Unfortunately it seems that the mailbox mounting bracket is not sold in ANY local H Dep stores within a 50 mile radius. Perhaps the only viable means of resolving this unpredictable problem is with a few screws and some intuition!!

If I recall, the mailbox you purchased has a 'lip' around the base to allow for a bottom or side mount.
And the post it appears has a flat surface where the mailbox is to mount. Korotkovolnovij regenerativnij priemnik 0 v 1. I was posed with a similar situation at a friends house and simply took a scrap piece of pressure treated 5/4 deck board and cut it to fit the mailbox base and fastened it with PL construction adhesive. The PL (made by Loctite and available in the Paint Dept with caulks and adhesives) is an indoor outdoor product that joins dissimilar materials permanently, and I used it to attach both the metal mailbox to the wood bracket that I made to fit as well as the wood to the poly mail box post.
It was and remains intact and has held up to two hurricanes (the mail box is in the Outer Banks of North Carolina). Try that and enjoy your beautiful new mail box combo!
I am confident you will get the same great results I did. I have another solution that I have used that is easy and quite cost effective. If I recall, the mailbox you purchased has a 'lip' around the base to allow for a bottom or side mount.
