Does the recipient MTA actually receive for both klop.yi.org *and*
thuis.klop.ws? The recipient MTA will dereference the CNAME and rewrite the
envelope for the reason that it can only relay to an RR that points to a 
real host.

You might be able to fix it if you configure the mta on thuis.klop.ws to 
accept mail for the thuis.klop.ws domain in addition to klop.yi.org (which I 
assume is how you have it setup).

In a situation like this if you have domain CNAME originaldomain then
you better make sure that someone can send to either 
@domain AND @originaldomain otherwise it doesn't make sense.
