I hate ISPs that carte blanche block port 25!
I will never use or recommend (if I can possibly help it) ISPs that make it a policy to block port 25. To me, it defeats the whole purpose of the internet. I want a pipe to the internet so I can use whatever services are available, not some filtered, diminished, restrictive service. Now, Comcast's idea of restricting port 25 for customers that are unwittingly hosting zombie computers is a good one, as long as the process to get the port reopened is straight-forward once the problem is cleared up. Other providers such as MSN could learn from that strategy.

I hate SPAM as much as anybody (and I don't care much for the salt-soaked over-processed meat, either!), but blocking my ability to use whatever email services I want from wherever I want is not the answer.
