Follow up question to that, Sage: Is there a “God of mailman/mail” in the Realms/Toril? A god that most people who do delivery or any sort of job that requires carrying stuff across great distances pray to so that they (and their packages) arrive safely/without any harm?

1)
No, there’s no such divine portfolio.
Folk pray for safe delivery to the deity whose temple they entrusted their message/letter/package to, PLUS Umberlee (if they know sea travel will be involved in its deliverance), and/or 2)
…Shaundakul (land travel involved). If they fear bribery is likely (to misdirect, intercept, or see/substitute contents) they may also give offerings to Waukeen.#Realmslore— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) February 10, 2020
So, Hermes is something like Travel domain deity? Hermes/Mercury in other pantheons is the god of messengers (not in the Realms). And thieves, interestingly.
