They don't mail due to capping mail at 1million gil per mail as a rmt lessening measure. I would think though a pop up once results posted would work. 'hey you won! go interact with the signboard to complete the transaction!' or 'we're sorry entry 1 won, you were 2, here's your refund'. ---but my suspicion with why this isn't added (and also one of the reasons the walk of shame irks me more) is because they kinda hope and want some players to bid and forget to collect their gil in the window, therefore making it a bit of a gil sink for non winners too.
