It appears that some years ago someone quietly removed port 465 and 587
from the reduced exit policy at
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/ReducedExitPolicy
without an explanation.

I've added them back in, since these ports should only be used for
user-authenticated SMTP, and not spam. Has anyone experienced any abuse
from these ports that involved non-authenticated mail/spam?

Otherwise, it seems that exit operators who were using the reduced exit
policy should consider updating their polices to include these ports.
