I don't know if you are already aware of this problem:
ufw 0.35 does not start after booting.
It seems to be a known bug, but the bug behaves differently depending on the operating system in use:
1. ubuntu LTS: ufw does not start nor configures the firewall rules. It does not start as a service, not even adding a command in rc.local or adding a line '@reboot root ufw enable' to the cron file.
2. Debian 9: although after the boot, the ufw status command responds 'Status: inactive' but the rules are loaded instead, because the mail server is working properly, and by checking with nmap the ports are actually open.
So until a patch or update of ufw 0.35 is issued, keep it in mind before you go crazy trying to figure out what the problem is.
