outgoing mail boxes aren't listed on the postal operator's website.
As a tourist, if you happen to come across one of these, you are free to
deposit any outgoing mail in the designated slot

It's not a habit, there's a dedicated slot to put outbound mail
Here's a picture for reference,

I get that, since that is it's primary function.
How would we then let people know that outgoing mail can be put in the
box via the outgoing mail slot? Would it be better to tag one
`amenity=letter_box` and one `amenity=post_box`, or simply put it just
under `amenity=letter_box`
I just want to make sure since there's currently around 4000 uses of
`post_box:type=community` (which is the current recommended tag on the
Canadian Tagging Guidelines), it would make up a quarter of all uses of
`amenity=letter_box` that this is how the worldwide community feels.
