Very odd. When I use ftp.suse.com, I get the situation I discussed: not
all RPMs show up in YAST, even though they are in the ftp directory.

When I use ftp.gwdg.de, I get no items to update in YAST. Yes. It is
entered correctly. I even checked the ftp directory myself. The files
are there. YAST just won't offer them as available updates!

Switch back to ftp.suse.com and the items show up again. Well, most of
them, as described earlier.

Very odd.
