No, why would there be an issue? You only will have an issue when you upload material that is not yours, where you do not have the rights to upload it.

If you have a blocked account, you cannot open a new account using a different email address. When Adobe realizes what you have done, they will block the second account.

So, can I never sell images through an Adobe Stock account again?

Given your post above, you have no real clue why your account got blocked. So chances are high that you get blocked again.

 

If you want to clarify your situation, you should ask contributor support. They will anyhow have the final say into your situation.

As an Adobe Stock Contributor you have agreed to the Stock Contributor Agreement, by which you confirm that you own full rights to every asset you submit to Adobe.  They are not going to check whether you have uploaded the assets to other stock services.

None of which was related to submitting stock elsewhere using a different email address.

Well, your account has been blocked for violating one or more conditions of your contributor agreement, not for posting the same assets to Shutterstock.
