Broadcast produced by man of letters in overseas post

Ross

I believe the answer is:

air mail

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'overseas post' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'broadcast produced by man of letters' is the wordplay.
'broadcast' becomes 'air' ('air' can be a synonym of 'broadcast').
'produced by' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'man of letters' becomes 'mail' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'air'+'mail'='AIR-MAIL'

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for air mail that I've seen before include "Post via plane" , "Overseas letter service" , "Overseas postal method" , "Letters carried by plane" , "Flying post?" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times.
