Comment:
Tor exit nodes regularly appear on lists of "malicious" IPs because jerks
sometimes use them to do abusive stuff. It's got nothing to do with
whether those nodes are trustworthy themselves. You're also getting a
smaller range than the whole range of exits of the Tor network because
you're connecting to an email server (probably via POP, SMTP, or IMAP),
and most exits don't support email.
