Uuh, I'm not sure, but may be I had "-oMai" AND "-f <>" in the call. But
definitelly, the mail was not send and there was nothing in main-,
reject- or panic-log.

You are right: I had -f <> in the call which produced the logs in my OP.
Then, my hope was, that w/out giving specifically a null sender the
$authenticated_id will not be empty.
