Email sending problem from remote host since update to v94.0.2

[Galdon]

I have been sending emails on a centos 7 vps with Mautic application for years without problems.
Since i have updated cpanel version to v94.0.2 email sending is not more possible from mautic application with exim.
I get a swiftmailer error.

I use this settings to send email from mautic application:

Service to send mail through: Other SMTP Server
SMTP Host: 127.0.0.1
Port: 25
SMTP encryption type: none

Here is log output:

Can anyone help?

Hey there! That log shows the connection to the remote system timing out. Can you try running this command manually on your server to see if you can connect?

telnet mailer.xxx.com 25

You'll just need to include the full domain name there that you previously redacted.

Hi
Tahnks for your help.

I can connect with telnet.
output:

Trying 37.97.xxx.xx...
Connected to mailer.xxx.com.

220-We do not authorize the use of this system to transport unsolicited,
220 and/or bulk e-mail.

I can also send a testmail from the mautic configuration page which also arrives.

But when I start the sending process, no progress is displayed on the status page and I have these errors in the log file.

Thanks for the additional details. It's good that the manual test with telnet is working, so we can be assured the connection between the systems is good.

It might be best to contact the developer of the application to see if they have any ideas on that specific error, as the server-side connections appear to be working well, but the application itself is timing out when trying to use them.
