Due to a hint from @Maximus1 I managed to use MQTT without the tasmota node:

My former problem was, that I didn't feed the plug with a empty message, so that MQTT returns the current state back to the stat/... node:

Because of the group command `tasmotas`, I do not need to send it to all plugs separately.
