Australia post do handle EMS - although as STL said, a lot of it is done through AAE (which is a joint venture between Australia Post and Qantas, using the resources of both). Whether or not EMS is delivered by your local postie depends on the contracts in the area - some postal delivery areas have contractors who only do regular parcel delivery, in some they do it all.
Thanks dirge, zippo and STL for clearing all that up, you learn something new everyday. Cheers
