The main discord here seems to arise from totally different approaches 
to the question. You are building a whitelist while default tor exit 
policy is a blacklist. IMHO it's hard to constructively discuss amending 
blacklist from whitelist POV.

Sure it is valuable but AFAIU tor is not there to bring order back to
Internet.

P.S. There is neither X-Mailer nor User-Agent headers in your mails. 
That's cool but missing In-Reply-To and References is annoying. Do you 
use some email sanitizing software or just hardened MUA? If it's not a 
secret of course:-)
