The Postman is merely a metaphor for strength, courage and conviction. In its roots, Postman is an old fashioned movie without the heavy, overdone special effects we badly crave(Armaggedon, Starship Troopers). Also, Great scenery and camera work help the story along, not to mention good acting. This is why the Action genre is so popular while the Epic genre sees a rare release. This only strengthens the fact that movies 'wax too philosophical' for the general audience, especially an American audience which usually can't handle any movie beyond 1 and a half hours.

It's use of symbolism and Shakespearian references were well placed, though seemingly not accepted. Costner did a great job transforming a hokey script into an attractive film. I found the movie to be better than anticipated (perhaps because I feared the worst, thanks to all the 'anti'hype). Even the act of taking the jacket off of the remains (and certainly that of putting the jacket on himself) would have pulled the fabric apart. Given enough time and a suitable environment this combination of byproducts, with the addition of the bacteria that will inevitably emerge, would make any cloth or fabric (with the exception of treated leather products) not only disgustingly filthy, but also so weakened from exposure to what amounts to a corrosive liquid, that the fibers would tear apart from any stresses put on them. In the final stages of decomposition, this is referred to as liquefacation or liquiescence. As the tissues break down, many chemicals and enzymes are released, including the hydrochloric acid of the digestive system. When a person dies, the body goes through many stages of decomposition on its way to being merely a skeleton.

The problem here is the condition of the clothing he takes. The main character assumes his role because he found an old abandoned mail truck containing the remains of a long dead mailman and pilfered the uniform from the skeleton.
