Hi, P.T.
I don't use reminders so what I have to say may not be complete or even
correct but I think I can see where your problem is coming from.
There are two email accounts involved in any email message, the Sender
(FROM) and the Recipient (TO). Email notification of reminders are sent FROM
{your copy of MLO} TO {you}. All that stuff in the settings page about email
account is for the FROM. You might open a GMX account in your name but it
would probably be more accurate if you opened a GMX account called "PT
Travis' desktop MLO".
Setting up a forwarding instruction for "PT Travis' desktop MLO" should not
have much effect because there is probably nobody sending mail to your copy
of MLO.
The Recipient side of this is set up when you set up a reminder. Under Alert
Actions, you check the box "send email to" and then fill in the address
where you want the email to be sent. I assume that you would put your gmail
address there.
Then, when the reminder is triggered, the email will be sent FROM your MLO's
email account TO the gmail account.

Subject: [MLO] Re: what email service are you using for reminders
I tried signing up for GMX
and having it forward emails to gmail ... (because what good is a reminder
if you have to log in to some obscure email server to read it lol)
and it doesn't forward (went through ALL the instructions to do so, but ...
)
sigh
any other thoughts out there folks?
