Where can I set the E-Mail Adress with which the Verification E-Mails are sent?
It should be the email address setting in the General Configuration settings.
I'm pretty sure that the verification emails are sent from the email address specified for the administrator account when you installed your forums.
And how should that work? I mean, bboard cant just log into my E-Mail Account and send an E-Mail with it, can it?

It doesn't need to. It simply uses the mail function - http://php.net/mail - and sends the email "as" you(your email address).
Hmm, but it doesn't send the E-Mail -.-

So it's not sending activation emails?
No... The setting is on...
But it doesnt get sent...
Some hosts do not allow emails to be sent with PHP, primarily free hosts. Talk to your host to see if you can get it turned on.
