indeed. By personal choice, I have found it more convenient to exclude this traffic leaving my relay.
I'll make scrips that create rules with these output ports only for Tor relays.

Thanks a lot mr. Roger.

Relays need to allow connections to all outgoing ports.

If you do lines like the above, your Tor relay will be unable to reach
other Tor relays that chose port 80 or port 110 for their ORPort or
their DirPort. (People choose those ports because some users are behind
firewalls that only allow connections to those ports.)
