Hi, yes, i started my TOR exit node with port 25 open (default is close) and half a year later my provide sent me a letter that my PC is sending many spam mails permanent and that i should check my PC for malware. Because i could not find an email relay i could forward the mails to, i closed port 25.
So TOR is in use as an email mixmaster.
