If I give my home address, so something will be sent to me from America, in what order should I list my postal code, country, etc?

Here are the recommendations from Russian Post: http://www.russianpost.ru/portal/en/home/postal/rule_adress
I suggest always having the person write everything except the country name (RUSSIAN FEDERATION) in Cyrillic.
Although Russian Post will deliver it if the address is in Latin letters, your local Post workers will appreciate reading in Cyrillic, instead.
So basically, everything should be the same as if you were mailing to a Russian from within Russia, except you must write RUSSIAN FEDERATION underneath the address (this is what gets it from the USA to Russia).
your name
the physical street address
city, country, postal code
The American postal service only delivers to Russia and then they deliver it to you. If you already live there just copy the style you normally would but at the bottom us large block letters RUSSIA.
It will get to the coutry.
