Thank you for your help.
The other day I installed Mint 19 - the newest release.
Here too the autologin did not work, from the very first reboot after 
installation before anything else was done.

Installtion the same software at home (on a rather old computer), worked 
just fine.
Maybe this is due to broken hardware.
I noticed a little later, when I tried to enter text, that "shift+t = T" 
and "shift+y = Y" are apparently broken.

About the login after suspend - I found that unchecking the "lock 
screen" item under "screensaver" clears that problem.
