The mail system sends items in a clockwise direction around the station. This is relevant if you're either using a syndicate mailman suit or mailing bombs.
For example: If you try to mail yourself to sec from crew quarters, which is north of sec, you'll have to go around the entire station before you land in sec. If you mail yourself from research, which is south of sec, you'll be taken straight to sec.
With the mailman suit, as the round goes on breaches in the mail pipes tend to occur, so you'll want to position yourself to avoid these.
If you're mailing bombs, this is extremely important if you are using timers for your bombs. It also helps to make sure you don't cut off your further bomb targets by avoiding bombing the nearest one first.
