I hear this term often in the other categories. Will someone kindly bring this grandmother into the 21st century?

In Yahoo vernacular it means some stalker will set loose all the viscous clones attacking the person.
Grassy just went through the experience of un-called for attacks and accusations
In Post Office vernacular employees were laid off or went crazy and came back and had violent episodes against their bosses and co-workers.
It is not a desirable experience and one not wished upon anyone you love.

It basically means to go crazy and start killing people. It comes from a digruntal postal worker that had gotten fired and he went in to the post office and just started shooting anyone and everyone he thought had anything to do with him losing his job. Apparently this has happened more than once so now people use that as an expression...going postal on somebody basically means wanting to kill them.

From 1986 to 1997, several post office employees went on killing sprees, killing more than 40 people in that time.
As for the vernacular, it refers to going crazy and killing your co-workers due to work stress, annoyance or grumpiness.
Or, as most people use it, "Stop bugging me or I'll kill you!"
I linked Wikipedia's on-line encyclopedia below to explain the phenomenon to you.
