Is it legal to put unstamped mail in a mailbox?
No you can not. The mailbox is for use of official mail that has gone through a post office only. I know of some instances that a mail carrier will not take mail from a box to be mailed if it does not have the name and address of the box owner on it. Meaning that you could not put your outgoing mail in someone elses box to be picked up.

Is it a federal crime to open another persons mail?
What kind of mailbox? A residential mailbox? A rural delivery mailbox? A mailbox in a parcel store? An official USPS mailbox? All are offenses, the last one especially. The fact that it turned out to be empty is immaterial. You didn't know it was empty when you broke into it, your intent was to open it and gain access to whatever was inside.

Can someone else put their mail box on your property?
If you let them, sure. If someone is doing this and you don't like it, ask them to move it and if they refuse talk to a lawyer. If you let someone put their mail box on your property and keep it there for some length of time you may be creating an "easement" granting them the perpetual right to keep their mailbox there.
