Yes. Use exactly the same delivery path as a "normal" PC/Mac email
client would use. Deliver to comcast and let them figure out how to
deliver, don't be too smart and try to deliver direct yourself.

In postfix its the "relayhost" variable in main.cf. This email was
brought to you with mutt and postfix, via smtp.knology.net.
