When a game is started between humans it is very important to define the nature of the interplayer relationships. The type and amount of diplomacy allowed should be known from the start, otherwise there may be hurt feelings latter on. If everyone knows and is playing by the same rules, then everyone will be happy.
If there are no defined rules, and you want to contact a player outside the game, I'd say you were within your rights, and not breaking unspoken rules. However next time... get the person that is running the game to state the rules openly before game start. That way there is no confusion. It's worth the extra time and effort, in order to make sure everyone feels the game is being played fairly.
