Ok, thanks for that tip.
Now a Test connection looks like:

telnet myserver.de 25
Trying 1.1.1.1...
Connected to unix-solution.de.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 mail.myserver.de ESMTP Exim 4.80 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 14:39:54 +0100
ehlo localhost
250-mail.myserver.de Hello p578a6f5e.dip0.t-ipconnect.de [1.1.1.2]
250-SIZE 209715200
250-8BITMIME
250-PIPELINING
250-STARTTLS
250 HELP
quit
221 mail.myserver.de closing connection
Connection closed by foreign host.

did this mean that fist of all the connection is encrypt by starttls?

next I have try md5-cram and get the following error:
(received and digest are anonymised)


23042 Process 23042 is ready for new message
23042 CRAM-MD5: user name = test
23042           challenge = <23042.1390398389@???>

no one of received or digest are stored in database.
the password in the db is saved as md5 hash with a salt.
