We have some spam prevention in place and like every automated thing it might block the wrong people.
In this case you where blocked because the IP your provider assigned to you is on the CSS blacklist from Spamhaus. The IP will get removed automatic after a few days.
Your second post went through because your IP address changed and the new IP is not on the blacklist.

If you have such a problem again and if it persist it might help to restart your router. Often a new IP is assigned then.

Please let me add some advice on how to report a problem.
1.) Post it in the Report Bugs forum, it's meant for such things.
2.) In case of personal information like your email or IP it is even better to not post in the forum and send a pm to "Forum Administrators" instead.

Turn your router off/on. Good chance that you will be assigned a new IP address by your ISP that won't be blacklisted.
