My bad, the company name changed in 1991 only, but the logo and advertisements did indeed use La Poste from 1984 onwards (pdf, fr).
So, corrected version: the La Poste name shouldn't be used for pre-84 vehicles
In fact, and if I'm not mistaken, the Renault 4 Fourgonnette used by the PTT people was made for all French administration services (EDF/GDF, ONF, firemen...), and the main difference with the other vans was just a small additional window on the cargo box side (called "vitre administration" by this car spare part site). Should we then use "Administration" as complement, as was more or less suggested by sixcyl at least once and as is done for now for specific 4-window Renault R4 and some Citroën DS/ID??
For the other vehicles (Goélette, Galion, Estafette...), I'm not sure that the specs were different from factory models: this complement is most probably not relevant, in these cases.
