Just for testing purposes you could try a jessie-backports kernel downloaded from snapshots or even the kernel from Debian 9 (stretch). Using a kernel from a newer release is generally less dangerous that many other packages. Worst case one can just reboot to the previous kernel. Beware that LTS support for jessie ended in June 2020. https://www.debian.org/releases/jessie/ That system should be upgraded to some release with security support as soon as possible, especially since it's dealing with e-mail as far as I understand from your other messages.
