The Host (Left hand Side) from this Map should be equal to the Relayhost 
Setting. "www.mymailserver.de" != "[www.mymailserver.de]"

[www.mymailserver.de]	username:password

There is no such Option. You have to configure Cyrus-SASL and specify a 
User/Password Database. Either use sasldb or saslauthd with an appropriate 
Backend (Maybe pam or shadow).

And of course you have to install the same Cyrus-SASL Mechanisms on each 
Server. If you use sasldb best to choose cram-md5 or digest-md5.

Hmm, there are Examples in SASL_README for setting up Postfix as Server, too.
Please read it again.
