Walthamstow is E17. The E post codes go right up to the Greater London
border and even beyond it in one direction, but stops rather short of it in
another.

As a long term resident of East London I have to disagree with you.
Notwithstanding political definitions, most people regard Forest Gate - birth
place of Dame Anna Neagle and Dame Vera Lynn - as an inner London suburb.
The E post codes do not go to the Greater London border. South Woodford is
E18 but Woodford Green and Woodford Bridge have IG postcodes.
Havering is the eastern-most London borough and none of it has an E
postcode.
