Yeees, I got the tiny little point that was missing:
Yust a little configuration error within the mail-clients:
Under Nescape Comm. go Incomming Mailserver -> Edit and write as
username: user%yourdomain.com.
This results in an adddress of the sort:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] but it popps !!!
Within Outlook you do the same:
Server --> POP3 -- account name: user%yourdomain.com
and it popps !!!
Holly cow, sometimes life seems more complicated as it is ...
