Will this work well mounted to a wooden post outdoors?

The mounting holes on the clothesline housing are too far apart to mount directly to a wooden post but a short plank (18" or so) could be attached to the post and the clothesline attached to the plank and it would work just fine. Hope this helps!

I have it mounted at an angle, but don't have it at the top of the stairs. I think the post would need to be 2.25 at least. Otherwise it has been good for an irregular area of the house.

Probably. The mounting devices are made of cast iron and would seem to support the awning even if it were only mounted onto posts.

Yes, but you will need longer screws. I have mine mounted on 4X4 fence post. I use stainless steel screws instead of the one that came with the pole. Good luck to you. YY

This particular mailbox can only be mounted on a 4" x 4" wood post using the post adapter plate made for this mailbox. Amazon sells a universal adapter plate which can be used to attach the 4x4 post to the mailbox. Really easy to install using wood screws. Also, very sturdy.

I don't believe so, I have to let you know the mounting bar is horizontal, not vertical and there about 20" apart screw from screw. its very sturdy but I don't see how to set it up on a post. also take account this swivels from side to side

If the post is sturdy enough and with the proper u-shaped clamps. Also consider the wind.

Yes - it mounts easily to the Mail Boss brand metal post with pre-drilled holes, but if using another post, use the provided plastic floor liner/installation template to see if the holes line up. If they don't line up you would just use an intermediary piece of wood approximately 4"-6" x 9"-12".

There is a pole on the bottom that you would screw onto a post. I don't think it would last if you hung it from the top -- it's not very sturdy.

It will if the post is set in cement. If not I would recommend putting it in cement as the top is heavy. But it is a great save mailbox.

The post need to be strong enough to tension the sail to 150 lbs on each corner. Wood should be 6x6. There are many good guides on mounting sails on the web.

I installed mine on a wood post, but I am sure if you check with your local hardware store they can tell you how to install it In concrete and give you the items you need to do that with.

I have it mounted on a small post now. The hole is about 3/4 inch in diameter. Depends on the size of your post but I am going to say yes. You can hang it or mount it. Hope that helps.

Can this be used outdoors in a mostly enclosed (bottom is slightly open) post fixture?

It will work where ever you put it. If you want to mount it outside where it is exposed to the elements, the company has a exterior magnetic case available.

We mounted ours in the garage. I don't know if it can go outside. It works well for us!

Yes it can. It comes with a bracket that you can attach to to either a wood or steel post. The steel post is sold separately and is made to attach to that mailbox. If you looking for a good secure mailbox set up I would recommend you the steel post too.
