Yes, that's it, what I didn't know: boxedcolumns. Your example works very well, even with inserted
narrower environment:

\startframed[...]
  \startnarrower
    \startboxedcolumns[n=3]
    ...
    ...
    \stopboxedcolumns
  \stopnarrower
\stopframed

Many thanks, Wolfgang, for your patient explanation! You helped me so many times!
