Where did you copy that policy from?
It is the default policy that was installed with Vidalia.
A more conservative approach would be whitelisting, ie. Only allow specific ports while blocking all others. The "reduced exit policy" is such a whitelist.
Thanks for the link, I have implemented that reduced exit policy.
Considering that you run your relay from what looks like a residential (home) connection, you might want to further reduce the number of allowed ports.
It is indeed a residential connection :) Pretty decent speeds, unlimited bandwidth: http://www.speedtest.net/result/3001260636.png
Thank you for running an exit relay!
I wasn't using my connection for much of anything else and after reading about Tor in the Snowden files I figured I'd better contribute!
