Ah! You very certainly don't authenticate as must@xxxxxxxx, but as
"must". Check your SASL setup. By default your would use saslauthd,
which uses as MECH shadow or pam and strips the domain part
(@domain.tld) when not started with parameter "-r". Well, your system
user ist "must" and not "must@xxxxxxxx".
will this change even disturb my unix users to login with must@xxxxxxxx? or
will simply change mail users?

See above.

Why do you try to send mails to someone in the net, to a domain you
don't control, just for testing purposes? If you try to send out test
messages to an external domain then first ask the recipient that it is
ok for him to await a test mail.
$ host -t mx must.com
must.com mail is handled by 100 mx1.must.com.
$ nslookup mx1.must.com
Server: 192.168.0.1
Address: 192.168.0.1#53
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: mx1.must.com
Address: 10.23.42.11
Well, that explains the last part.
well :) i m not over internet yet. this server is working on private ranges
