It's news to me. I had Comcast for a while, and they *ran* an NNTP
server. Badly, granted. ;) I also never had trouble connecting to
outside servers that were running private groups.
They do block some *incoming* ports, and NNTP may be one of them.
Incoming port 25 was blocked by Comcast for quite a while, and I've
discovered some ISPs are blocking all traffic on port 4444 for some
reason.
