Upgrade to a supported operating system.

I know that isn't the answer you want, but that doesn't make it wrong.

Likely that your OS no longer supports modern encryption protocols for mail, and SMB file shares.

You can check that by testing with a newer OS.

...
1. Read the Manual
2. Read the Wiki
3. Don't ask for support on Unsupported versions of software
4. I have a job, wife, and kids and do this in my spare time. If you want something fixed, please help.

That isn't 'luck' - it's avoiding the situation.

Strongly suggest you bite the bullet and upgrade before discover one morning that security levels have been changed and there is no patch.

If you haven't been hacked first....
