I ran into a similar issue with my account. I was never much of one to post... mainly used the forums as research material (for every car problem I encountered, there was a solution already captured). When I wanted to purchase something from the classifieds,I was locked out from posting or PM the user (my post count was zero).
Ended up just sending a general "help" inquiry explaining that I didn't want to spam a bunch of threads simply to acquire the ability to PM a user... within 24 hours, my account had permissions changed and I could PM.
