It's always something, right? :-) I prolly wouldn't have known about this, but you brought it out. We're a lot of lucky dudes because all we have to do is let you fix it!

If it weren't for you, it wouldn't take long for the place to fall apart! :-) Hats off Rebirther...

After spending many hours the biggest issue is the new tls1.2+ protocoll, our server is too old and doesnt support that. php5.6 was an option but was also not supported.

That sounds like a ton of work and downtime to upgrade. That is unfortunate.

Yes, unfortunately, in the future tls1.1 will not work anymore for 3rd party hosters due security reasons like spammers.

We have found a way and ran it on a testserver. Could be added here in the future.

Update:
The emailsystem was setup and is now fully working.
