I would do the following steps.

1) get the latest AcornSSL module and install it (keep a backup of the old 
module just in case). Once installed reboot your computer.

2) change your settings in Hermes/Netfetch to the *official* ports as per 
the link I gave above, those are the only settings that will work.

3) Before trying to send any emails, go to your account in NetFetch/Hermes 
and change the mail log levels to I suggest to "detailed" as this will 
record the full exchange of the hand-shake between you and the server and 
might give a better clue as to actual error behind the scenes.

Let us know what happens.
