Re: Admin
This is an interesting discussion because the reported problem is that you cannot post. However, you clearly can post as you have started a new topic entitled "Admin" and posted to it with your original request and the screenshot. We have had a discussion about this via PM, buit in case it affects anyone else, I will repeat some of the advice here:
The problem usually arises because most of us share our IP addresses via our ISP, often with hundreds of other users. If one of those is recognised as a spammer, then the shared address gets blocked, affecting everyone using it. The blacklist does not last forever, so although it is frustrating, trying again a day later or even a few hours later can resolve the problem. The other option is to ask your ISP to move you to a different IP address, or for your ISP to request that the address is removed from a blacklist - it has to be the ISP as they own the IP address. Note: it is your public IP address that matters, not the IP address of your device on your network.
The screenshot shows a link to Spamhaus - did you follow that and read the advice there?
Although your problem is not with email, a site called mxtoolbox has a "supertool" that allows you to see blacklisting (there are other sites that can do that as well) and your IP address does show up:
Although I'd love to help more, it is not a problem with the Messageboard. I recommend that you speak with your ISP
