Depends on what the fence was made of. I think Gleb has a point in
that this announcement may have been written on a scrap of
cardboard which the protagonist attached to the fence using
whatever came readily to hand.... :-)
IMHO when you say "to post" it implies the mail service. Give me an example if
am wrong. At the very least the man could nail his message. :)
It can mean that. I think that meaning is more often used in British
English than here in America.
It can also mean to attach a message to a physical cork bulletin board,
wall, fencepost, telephone pole, etc., such as "I posted a for sale flyer
on the break room bulletin board" or "I posted the lost pet flyers to
several phone poles in the neighborhood."
