Not How I Wanted To Spend Last Friday

OMG, Snubby! So very sorry that you had to go through all of this but glad you came through (relatively) unscathed. Gotta believe that Lisa was watching out for you, too...
 
I'm going to guess that the net closing speed was not all that high. The USPS vehicle would have been going relatively slowly and you were at more or less a right angle, so not the problems you would have in a head on at 60 MPH each. My best guess is that while your exit port was sucking the seat in, you pounded the brake pedal with vigor. I sure have.

While this sucks, it could have been worse and your limited injury is a blessing. I have to concur with the concerns about the USPS driver; that is a hard error to make under what looks like good visibility. I would probably have been cranky and disagreeable.
