If the mailman picks up my outgoing mail this afternoon, does it get postmarked today?

pretty sure...

but if it is something important, i would go to the post office and get postmark confirmation or whatever it is called.

Not if Bluefront is delivering that day. It would take him twice as long as your normal mailman with a good civil service attitude. He'd get back late and miss the last next day post mark collection. Go to the PO and have a clerk hand date stamp cancel it, or get a 'proof of mailing' different from delivery confirmation. They're cheep.
