Now I need to buy a new mail box and post. Question is how can I
build a
new post?

Anything by the side of a road has the potential to be hit by a vehicle
going off the road. A conscientious mail box installer plans for this
possibility, and the first concern is that an impact of vehicle and the
mail box & post doesn't kill anybody. Modern street light poles are
break-away. Make your mail box post with similar forethought. Make it
weak, brittle, or flexible.

Make the post of PVC, ABS, fiberglass rod, or a 2x2. If a car breaks the
mail box down, that's what was supposed to happen.
