mailed
Dispatched by post
Mailed means sent through the postal system: I mailed the package yesterday, The invitations were mailed last week.
In older or literary usage, mailed describes something covered in mail—the flexible armor made of interlocking metal rings: a mailed fist, mailed knights.
The armored sense appears in figurative expressions about force or aggression.
