Pack up and post, perhaps (4)

I believe the answer is:

stop

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'pack up' is the definition.
'stop' can be an answer for 'pack' (thesaurus). I am not certain of the 'up' bit.

'post perhaps' is the wordplay.
'perhaps' indicates an anagram.
'post' is an anagram of 'STOP'.

'and' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for stop that I've seen before include "Come to a halt" , "Organ knob; get bus here" , "Withhold payment" , "colon, say" , "This watch is used to time races" .)
