Thank You for answers. But:
1. How should be properly configured ssl_cipher_list?
2. Ok, removed !TLSv1 !TLSv1.1.
3. Strange thing with ssl_protocols and ssl_cipher_list, because on older
server on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, dovecot 2.2.9 and postfix 2.11.0 these two
lines looks exactly this same and no errors in mail.err file and mailes
works without any problem.
4. No, currently I don't use LMTP.
