Super!  Now this works ok:
\startstandarmakeup
 ...
\title{Inhalt}
\startsimplecolumns[n=2]
\pagereference[content]
\placecontent[alternative=c,interaction=all]
\stopsimplecolumns

\stopstandardmakeup

But how can I define the columnbreaks of the toc similar to 
[pageboundaries=...]?  If I set [pageboundaries=4] it seems, that the toc 
wants to be continued on the following page (not column) but in 
\standardmakeup there is no following page, so the entries after "4" 
disappear ...

???  I don't understand what you mean by this :-(
