ARRGH, I'm sorry, things went too quick :-( So the lifetime in average per 
hbond is 628.571 ps?


Yes, per the calculation.  For a bit more about the analysis, see the "Please
read and cite" notices, as well as this thread:

The note about the correlation function would imply that the correlation
function itself has not converged until its value is < 0.001.  This is usually a
result of insufficient data, either the length of the simulation, or number of
frames analyzed (based on the spacing of the frames).
Hmm, so using 120 ns simulation from a standard .xtc file (timestep of 10 ps) is not long enough. Perhabs I should try the original .trr file... The .xtc file I'm using only contains DMPC and the small molecule, no solvent - I can't see this would make a difference in this case, am I right?


The correlation will depend on how much the interactions are changing over the
period you analyzed.  If you are analyzing a small molecule and DMPC, water
should not matter.
