That page has not been updated since 2009, while it may be correct
there is no reason not to use the correct documentation, the section
of interest is short: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/vhosts/name-based.html
> <VirtualHost 1.2.3.4:80>
> ServerName host.example.org
> DocumentRoot /var/www/default
> </VirtualHost>
So this becomes your default vhost when a match is not found and explains
why the php file is invoked when the order of specificity falls through.
> http://mail.example.org/ <-- works
> http://smtp.example.org/ <-- doen't work
> http://smtp.example.org/host.php <-- gives the HTTP_HOST (PHP-script),
> but why?

Do you have the correct ip address in your vhost config? I would
bet if you read the log, you will see what is happening and how it differs from
what you expect.
Some more in-depth details at https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/vhosts/details.html
