If they block Port 25, the spammers will simply use another port.
Huh? My mailserver only listens for traffic on port 25/tcp, so if spammer try to use another port, they're not going to get anywhere.

Sorry, I was not clear in my parent post. I was referring to Comcast's blocking outbound port 25 so that I could not reach my domain's hosted email server.
