frost line in pa is 42 inches
It all depends on what the post will be used for. In general 30 to 36 inches should be adequate to support a 4x4 post for a clothesline, a fence or a mailbox. Anything less than that and you most likely will have a problem with frost moving or lifting the post to the point where it will not be straight in the spring.

The Post Office can rekey the mailbox if the mailbox is owned by the Post Office. All you have to do is call your local Post Office and ask them to rekey. There is a charge, however, of around $50 to do this.
It is not typical or appropriate for a neighbor to have their mailbox in your front yard. Mailboxes should be placed on the owner's property, typically near the residence for easy access by the postal service. If you have concerns about the mailbox location, you should address them with your neighbor or local post office.
If the mailbox is in front of your house you probably want to use feet (assuming you are in the USA) If it is at the post office you should probably use miles, lol :)
The post office is a federal agency. It is written in the constitution that America will have a post office. It will always be a federal offense to tamper with mail or a mailbox.
Yes. This is a federal offense. Any tampering with or destroying or 'leaving little surprises in' a mailbox is a crime. Only the post office and the owner of the box should be putting anything in it.

a rural mailbox is just a mailbox that is attached to a post, so the mailman can just drive up, deliver mail, and drive away. the mailbox will generally have the family's last name and house number on it.
