I've had a similar problem with outgoing mail in the past. Seems Comcast
filters outgoing syn packets to prevent people from setting up mail
servers, only it seems they did this only in a few areas, not all, from
what I could tell.
If in case you are falling into this area of nulldom, you'll need to
setup a smart-host to a server outside the comcast network where you'll
tell sendmail to forward to the expecting server and have that server
relay the mail for you.
FYI, when I was having that trouble, I was living in Jenkintown and was
on the Willow Grove hub.
Good Luck.
