Seems is related to newer ssh-keygen export format defaulting to RFC4716 format.

I converted the existing xsibackup_id_rsa from a fresh install key back to the RSA PEM format using the process on the link below and now email and linking remote access to another esxi server is working.

Convert OpenSSH keys to RSA PEM format

Some more info here:
SSH-keygen does not create private key

Hope this helps someone.

I'm also having this issue with a fresh install of XSIBACKUP-PRO 11.2.19 on 6.5.0 U3, email fails to gmail and office365 smtp hosts.

When I try the solution Nikolai details above it fixes the issue for gmail and also office365 smtp hosts. However I find that linking to another remote esxi 6.5.0 U3 host is then broken. When I re-link the remote esxi host again the xsibackup_id_rsa files gets regenerated again which breaks the email. Around I go in a circles.
