Unfortunately, there's not really much you can do. Comcast indiscriminantly blocks IP's, but never gives a reason for doing so.
We've been in contact with them multiple times a day over the past few weeks to try and get this permanently resolved, but we only received canned responses from them. This isn't just affecting us though, if you search Google for 'comcast blacklist' you'll see that quite a large number of service providers are also complaining about them. We've already contacted them to remove the block, now all we can do is wait for their automated removal system to remove our IP's. To get around this, you can temporarily use your ISP's outgoing mail server in your email client (unless they're blocked too), or you can try using webmail. If you have any further questions, please let us know.
Thanks!

ARGH!!!!!!!!
Unfortunately, it is affecting my webmail as well. I can receive, but I can't send back out. So, if you are on one of the sites that uses SpamCop, you won't be getting an email from me any time soon... damnit.
EDIT: Thanks to
segansca, I now have gmail. Thank you, thank you, thank you! If you see an email from cassygordon@gmail.com, that's me. :D
