suggestions please as to where the problem may be?

In the old days, dishwashers had an exposed element at the bottom which
heated up the air after the water had drained. Does anyone know whether
warm air is still circulated after the final rinse? Or does stuff dry by
evaporation because the final rinse is hot?

Either way, sounds like something is wrong with the Miele cutlery basket
geometry. Does it still happen if the basket is almost empty?

Do you mean rust stains? That is normally a sign of cheap "stainless"
with insufficient alloying elements.
