Solution : Rename your function name emailcomm() to __construct()

Explanation: In previous versions of PHP, if PHP cannot find a __construct() function for a given class, it will search for the old-style constructor function, by the name of the class, but now old style constructors are DEPRECATED in PHP 7.0, and will be removed in a future version. You should always use __construct() in new code. Read php manual

   function __construct() {
      // copy your old constructor function code

2. Get backup from 2.3.24
3. Import it to the database to freshly installed FA 2.3.26
4. Now, goto the exports page and export it from FA2.3.26
