Default The good, better, best fenceposts.

I am in extreme South Louisiana. Wanting to build a fence. One side will
be 6' high (100' long). One side will be 8' high (50' long). I am using
metal panels for fencing. The kind that is so popular for roofing.
What is the best recommendation for fenceposts. Schedule 40 pipe, cemented.
4x4 treated wood, or 6x6 treated wood. How far in the ground? Gravel in
the bottom of the holes?
Because of our humidity, rust is a problem. But also, rot in wood...so it's
a catch 22.
Any suggestions?
