Hi Matt-
click... click... click...
So here we go again. The old broken record.
If Comcast and RoadRunner blocked port 25, they
would be down many millions of messages per day.
If you really feel the need to provide outbound mail service
for your clients, why not do it on a different port and instruct them to use
that port? It's exceedingly easy to do, even in Outlook Express.
Not trying to pick an argument here, but ya gotta admit that
stopping millions of messages a day is worth a little effort.

Update
If my memory serves me right, there was a little more than
14,000 mail hosts identified in SenderBase for comcast.net exactly one month
ago. Guess what...
http://www.senderbase.org/search?searchString=comcast.net
I
believe that says 26,217, over a 90% increase in the last month.
That's
not really all that fair because of the virus storm and propagation can set
off SenderBase. They still though have many, many customers recording
rates suggestive of up to 1 million messages a day.
Road Runner
(rr.com) is actually up about 130% in the same period, but I think that just
goes to show you that they were working harder to begin with and RR customers
are just as foolish as Comcast customers are when it comes to executing
viruses.
