(root) refused (accept)
Correctly rejected, since it did not match sender_host_accept or
sender_net_accept.

Correctly not rejected, since it comes from mail.horse.de, which is
listed in sender_host_accept.

I don't really think you want those sender_host_accept and
sender_net_accept settings. They rather limit the number of hosts you
will be able to get mail from.
Perhaps you really intended to set sender_host_accept_relay and
sender_net_accept_relay?
