Well, the manual does not state that "$message id" should work for "Subst
<attribute>" option (;-)

The reason is that the message ID is available only *after* a new entry has been
written to the database, and the "Subst" command is evaluated *before* an entry
is submitted. "$message id" only works for "Thread display", "RSS Title", "Subst
on reply", "Subst on edit" and "Display". You should use

Display KlientIn/KundIn = $Vorname $Name; P: $Telefon Privat; G: $Telefon
Geschaft; N: $Telefon Mobil; $Landeskennung-$PLZ $Ortschaft [<a
href="http://localhost:8080/$logbook/$message id">$logbook:$message id</a>]

Please note that you wrote "mesage id", correct is however "message id" (two
"s"), so there is also a typo.

The link "Back" has been replaced upon request by "List" which is more
appropriate. So if you changed your menu with "Menu commands = ...", please
replace "Back" by "List" there.
