Mail vs. Post

In American English, 'mail' is commonly used as a verb to mean sending or dispatching letters, packages, or other items through the postal system and 'post' is less commonly used as a verb in the context of sending letters and packages. In British English, on the other hand, 'mail' is less commonly used as a verb. Instead, 'post' is generally used as the preferred verb for sending letters or packages through the postal system. However, 'mail' is still understood and used occasionally.
