I mean...I understand she stops him from dying but....does she go back in time? Does he go forward in time? How is it possible for them to get together when their 2 years apart? Or is it just a magical mailbox? and it doesn't make sense?

It is the dog. Jack connects them.
Jack was his dog up until he ran away and looked for her. That is when he first sees her, knowing she is the one for him. he doesn't tell her who he is because that would keep her from having ever written him in the first place. He does however find and rescue her book for her.
When Jack runs away he runs to be with her.
When she is sad after the he dies in the street, she takes Jack to a place she would be happy, the Lake house. That is where she decides to leave the first note. On both sides Jack is there.
You should watch a Patrick Swayze Movie "Three Wishes" where a dog that looks like Jack is in fact a Genie.
Anyway they are two years apart to begin with. He is in 2004 and she is in 2006. She wants to meet him after this point but in 2008 she send him a note saying don't show up until 2008 or he will die in 2006. He does what she says and in 2008 they meet at the Lake House. It all makes sense if you think about it. He didn't go to see her at the restaurant because she told him not to. She broke up with him because he didn't show up at the restaurant. He moved out of the Lake house because she broke up with him. She moves into the Lake House getting attached to it. She moves to the city where he had planted a tree for her. He builds a building that will allow her to get her book back. She finds out how he died and send the note that will save his life, and poof magically he appears.
That is about it.
It is all about the dog and what she was looking for when she went to the Lake House that day. She got her wish.

She somehow found out that the guy she tried saving was him. It happened to be that exact day 2 years ago (his time). So she went to the mailbox and wrote a letter hoping he would get it in time telling him not to go. He ended up getting the letter before he left, so he didn't go that day. Therefore, he never died...
She left in the note that she would be at the house in two years (she was there right then). He waited 2 years and showed up. So even though she didn't have to wait, he got that letter 2 years ago, and waited for her. I dont know if that helps you out, it still sounds kinda confusing.

First, it is 'Alex' (Reeves) who is hit by the bus at the beginning of the film. He was trying to get to Daly Plaza to meet 'Kate' (Bullock) and got hit by as he crossed the street to go to her. Near the end of the film she figures this out and writes him to not go to Daly Plaza looking for her. He goes but reads the letter and does not cross the street to get to her thereby avoiding his death.
The last scene is him driving up to the house to meet her at the mailbox. He has waited two years from the day he was originally to have been hit by the bus. For her it is only a few moments after she puts the letter in the mailbox.

It's possible for them to get together. They're both alive. They picked a meeting place. They hooked up. Nice and easy. The reason they didn't meet throughout the movie is because Keanu dies at one point. Sandra Bullock saves him by writing the letter after she finds out and meets up with him. Nice and easy.

Glad to see I wasn t the only one who didn t understand the movie. After reading your answers it makes sense to me now, however who ever you are that wrote Keanu Reeves sucks keep your rotten miserable comments to yourself. If you have nothing nice to say then don t say anything at all. People like you our world can live without!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so sick of the way people are. Did you loose anyone in 911?? Didn t it open your eyes how fragile life is??????????????

She saved his life in her time so when his two years passed and he was with her time he met her there.
