Hi Christian

Mask is only masking out areas, it doesn't change your extent. You need to
change your region bounds. You can set those is menu-Config-region-set
region (or g.region on the command line). Region is a very important concept
in GRASS GIS.If you are not familiar with regions, make sure to read a bit
more in the help files.

A quick way to change your region extend visually is in the map display
window, where you can set your region from the current display.

Cheers

Paulo
