Postal ratings?

I remember reading something in the forum about slow vs fast players, but I can't seem to find it now. Basically, the idea were that some players played much better at the slower time controls and worse at faster time controls and vice versa. Can anyone point me to that thread? In that vein, would it be easy to implement a separate rating for postal games only? It would be helpful to see how I compare with other humans at this time control as well as the few bots that have played postally. These ratings should be pretty accurate as there is no botbashing effect. Some slight imperfection in the ratings might arise due to a potentially stronger player timing out to a potentially weaker player due to lack of time to make moves, but that is the only potential issue I see with a separate postal rating.
