The muffler includes a housing with an inlet region for exhaust gas and with an outlet region for exhaust gas. An upstream line section of the exhaust line adjoins the inlet region for exhaust gas. A downstream line section of the exhaust line adjoins the outlet region for exhaust gas. At least one muffler chamber is formed in the housing. A base of the housing separates at least one liquid-collecting chamber from at least one muffler chamber. At least one liquid-passage opening connecting at least one muffler chamber to at least one liquid-collecting chamber for exchanging liquid is provided in the base. At least one liquid-discharging opening for discharging liquid from the at least one liquid-collecting chamber is provided on the housing.
