U.S. Post Offices used to have separate collection slots for stamped mail
and metered mail (postage printed on it by a machine), but it is several
years since I last remember seeing such. The only American usage for the
term "franked mail" that I am aware of is that members of the United States
Senate can send mail without having to pay postage. They just have to have
a notice, in the same location where postage would otherwise go, that the
mail was sent by Senator X on official business.

Sometimes known as a "business mail post box".
my suggestion would be to not use amenity=post_box but rather a different
main tag on these like amenity=business_post_box or business_mail_post_box
It avoids misinterpretation and also make the type tag more consistent
(shape only) rather than mixing different aspects/properties into the same
tag (even if currently in your context a particular shape refers to a
particular kind of service, this does not have to be like this forever and
everywhere)
cheers
