I am sorry that you disregarded what I wrote:
"
One of the things that goes wrong is that our email addresses are harvested from contact lists and spambots distribute spam to those contact addresses using our valid addresses - spoofing, it is called. In that way the list receives spam and the moderators have to ban those senders. Sometimes they are real members that have had their address used for spoofing. "
It would appear this has happened to your email address. As I understand it your email address has been harvested and used to send spam to the mailing list.
It seems the list manager has quite reasonably employed UCEProtect to keep that spam from being distributed. As I noted, sometimes this is a problem for real list members. There is really no way around this. There is a real advantage to using UCEProtect or a similar system - we never get any spam.
If you investigate the UCEProtect website they explain how you can combat the harvesting and use of your email address. No one can do this for you, you have to undertake the solution on your own.
Are you aware of a an anti-spam method that would work better than UCEProtect?

Resending it manually through different mail provider, when I get a bounce.
