Port 110 is the default port for email (pop3 and imap)
There is nothing to fix/change since the connection is working fine.

This is I believe where the problem lies, avast is trying to make a secure connection on a port that isn't expecting/accepting a secure connection. Hence the fairly specific error message "Server Response '-ERR Cannot establish SSL with POP server."
It is a very long time since I used OE6 and avast together and at that time there was no direct SSL/TLS scanning or forwarding (redirection). What you were able to do then was uncheck the option in the Mail Shield settings not to try and use SSL/TLS for that account. That was the only was to scan that email account as plain old POP3.
Unfortunately this detailed email account/s settings isn't present since avast versions were able to handle SSL/TLS email.
The only real option I can think of is to uncheck the avastUI > Settings > Active Protection > Mail Shield > Customize > 'Scan SSL connections' option. Even then I don't know if this will stop avast trying to send this by secure connection.
