Yepp...! That's what I figured out yesterday night... All the time I thought, for any reason, that smtp-auth controls every incoming mail and blocks every mail without a vpopmail account, while rcpthosts must be open... but it actually let's vpopmail-users send mail to remote clients, while the sending possibility is actually blocked by the rcpthosts-file... I feel quite ashame for having the solution so obviously in front of me without seeing it... But thanx to all of you... Now everything works fine!
