Addendum:
Looked to the thread mentioned above - found that I already knew it.
My current problem is not delaying power on of outlet.1 and outlet.2 (although 
this does not work for me either) but automatically powering on the main 
outlet when reapplying mains after a complete shutdown and an indefinite off 
time.
