In the help topic there is the following mentioned about relation
QuoteRelations (System)
This collection manages sub-collections for each Relation Definition you use in your database. It further groups files based on their Master and Version status. This collection is designed to help you keep track of all the master files and versions in your database.

If I understand it correctly all Master and Version files should be collected there.
I do have some relations configured and they work as they should but nothing is added to the collection.

What I am doing wrong in this case?
See also attached picture.

Works here.

Did you try a <F5> to refresh the collection view?
Perhaps IMatch could not update the collections because some other operation was running? Import? Write-back?

The versions are applied correctly and you see the master and versions in the file window?

Ah,
after reading it again it just works with versions and Master data and there it works. Sorry for that.

I was looking for somiething like this for master and buddy files.

No, this is only for masters and versions. Buddy files are not covered by this.

Usually a buddy file is something like an XMP file or a configuration file produced by some other software.  Most buddy files are not even imported by IMatch, just processed when the master is processed.
