I guess I finally waited the required 360 second timeout until you can post again. Talk about idiotic....
Unfortunately, it is required to counter spambots. The restrictions ease as your activity increases.
How should I send a message? They ask for your name and then your email. I've started putting my user id in the body too, but I haven't heard back and I check my email regularly.
I really don't know but they have fixed it for a lot of people already, maybe you just have to wait your turn or something.
