In the real world and what most people do to reinforce a mailbox won't be an issue. If you have a large brick or concrete mailbox, someone is going to get hurt potentially if they hit it. Even if you have a heavy duty pipe reinforced mailbox, you will be fine. If you install a special steel post down 10 meters into the ground that can be seen on the outside as not a typical wood post, I would have a hard time thinking a jury would find you to to be liable to pay for alot of damages. If you try to conceal it and make it look different than it is and there is malicious intent then I think there would be an issue.

thats the crux...concealment. So long as it can be seen it is a steel pipe post or has a concrete pillar, you're fine. But if you take steps to hide a steel post or something that's where you will get in trouble.
