You don't have to change your comcast e-mails. Your e-mail is yours. It can't ever be recycled and used by anyone else, so they won't remove it. The only time I've ever "lost" access to an e-mail address was when I had a snet.net e-mail. SNET ceased to exist and eventually all snet.net e-mail addresses were retired and eliminated completely. I still have a comcast.net e-mail from when we had comcast up north. That account was closed when we moved down here and I opened a new account with a different account name and e-mail. I don't even use the one that comes with my Florida xfinity account, and the xfinity bill gets e-mailed to my gmail address.

Edited to add: I lied. I had over 10 AOL e-mail addresses (loved those free trial CDs that came in the mail every week, heh) and a Prodigy e-mail address. They might possibly still exist, but I've long forgotten their passwords and stopped caring about them by around 1997.
Just be aware, Comcast is under no obligation to keep your e-mail active after you leave them. I haven't seen anyone's Comcast e-mail deactivated but up north, other cable companies disable your e-mail the second they disconnect you. There could be a day where Comcast decides to remove all e-mail accounts of non-subscribers to save money. Your e-mail storage is not free for them.
