Yes, I have. The log shows two errors, one of them seems to be a TLS
library problem. And the other error seems to be a DNS issue (a hostname
not resolving into an IP address). Here's the log

Yes, it is forwarded from my border router. My server is behind a NAT
service, which is provided by the router, so those ports (25, 110, 465
and 995) are being forwarded to the internal-private IP address of the
server.

I will consider this as soon as I have the chance to upgrade the bare
metal hardware on which the server is running at the moment. Thanks.
