Did the other one complete for you, or is it still in an inconsistent state?

  Sorry again,

  the problem is still partly existing:
  - the client did the transfer and entered the 'auth code' (wrong or false,
I can not proof it)
  - the client got an error (not a big problem, but should not happen)
  - the transfer away was completed within 60 minutes and WHOIS resolves
  - I did not get any notification (I have checked my mail logs twice - THIS
IS A PROBLEM)
  - the domain is still in my account (THIS IS A PROBLEM TOO, because I
wouldn't even notice that a domain has gone away - in this case I knew it
beforehand)

  Anybody else noticed the same problem?

  I am especially worried about the fact, that a domain which is not locked
might be 'stolen' by somebody else,
  and I even would not get a message 'domain has been transferred away'

  Matthias

    Not the case. The gaining registrar must approve/authorize a transfer.
By the time it gets to the "Transfer Away" stage, that first step has
already occured.

    We must abide by registry rules, which is "AUTO ACK" after 5 days. We
give the customer the ability to cancel/approve before hand, but they must
have the proper AUTH code. In this case, the customer APPROVED the transfer
away - but didn't use the correct code so it wasn't automated in our system
(had to wait until our system updates)
