If you're like me, your mailbox is not on your property. My mailbox is on the road right-of-way. If you are the same, I would not put up anything too "unforgiving" because of liability problems. I would use a fairly strong or impact resistant plastic box on a "break away" mounting. The box itself will give when it breaks off the post and hopefully won't damage the box or cause permanent damage the punk. Then all you would need to do is remount the box on the post. I had a car hit a heavy plastic one by accident once. It broke away from the post and flew about 50-75 feet. The box was undamaged. All I had to do was replace the post and remount the box. However, if your box is on your property, I would think you could do as you please since they would be trespassing while attempting to destroy your property.
