I suspect this header line explains it all:

X-Mailer: GMX.com Web Mailer

IOW, you are using a broken web browser based email agent, controlled by 
GMX, not you.  That's always bad as you have zero privacy, and quite likely 
a very short, enforced by idiots, login and password

Since that line does not reveal what sort of a machine and operating system 
you are using, if running linux, try thunderbird or kmail.  If running some 
version of winblows, then thunderbird, since it runs on both systems if you 
download and install the version for your operating system.

Linux is easily 10x more secure when properly configured, and 1000x more 
secure if a router running dd-wrt is between the machine and your modem 
than any windows installation. Just one of the reasons I use it.  Its also 
free for the cost of burning an installation cd or dvd once you have 
downloaded it.  Highly recommended by (sorry Jim H.) Grandpa Gene. ;-)

Cheers, Gene
