Well, for now this has been resolved.
It took them a day, but they removed us from their block list. Looking
over the mail logs today, our mail server sends a LOT of mail to
Comcast customers.

OK, I'm now convinced that Comcast has some morons working for them.
alot longer to convince you than me :D
They are once again blocking us. WTF is a host/ISP supposed to do when
their mail server hosts many domains, some with mailing lists that
happen to have many subscribers that use Comcast?
complain again, and again, and again, there are some lists you can sign up for
that will prevent this, to some aspect Ill try and post a few later in the
evening.
It seems they don't filter on content or based upon any of the public
blacklists, etc. Instead they use some pattern of their own making?
So what is the proper way to get some action on such problems.
eventually it will slow down or it has for me. right now Im actually at one of
the places where I have had to remove domains from there blocking, the last time
I did was november. a year ago I had the pleasure of attempting removal 8 times,
within 6 weeks. this place broadcasts opt-in emails to customers two times a
year, now and in october, then ocasional emails every week. to special
customers.
Does Comcast have to adhere to some rules applying to regulated
monopolies or common carriers or something like that?
nope, its there network they can manage it anyway they want. at least as far
as i can tell AND when it concerns spam filtering.
What is the complaint-escalation path?
I haved not found any
If this becomes another horror story of "Our American Way" (tm), maybe
we should shift discussion over to -kooler? :-)
I think I am signed up there still. seems to be techie to me still
