My Bubba server has been fine until four days ago since when it has
1.decided not to collect any mail forwarded from my gmail or any other account
2.ftd does not work anymore - all downloads added by the web interface fail.
3. apt-get claims that it has a "temporary" problem connecting to any of the repositories mentioned in sources.list.
It remains possible to connect via ssh and Apache is up and working. I have restarted ftd, Rebooted and torn quite a lot of hair out - does anyone have any suggestions?

You could check if the DNS settings had been changed, could be the problem.
I appreciate the suggestion (any suggestion!) - but the bubba address is set to be static - and when I check which devices are attached to my router and which addresses they are using sure enough the Bubba is using the correct address - Besides, wouldn't this affect Apache? Since I can still get to the web-admin pages I think that some services are running

I think he means your isp DNS, the server that translates public hostnames to ip address (ie: www.google.com -> 209.85.129.147 ).
This is consistent with the fact that you can reach your service from local and from internet, but your bubba cannot reach public servers such as your pop3/imap, public ftps and the debian repos.
You could try to ping or traceroute one of the server you're trying to connect..

Yep, the DNS Settings were at fault - thank you everyone for helping me out.
