Zoran,
to the best of my knowledge, all ions are stripped off the structures prior to MMPBSA treatment, normally. (There might be, however, special cases, where ions are considered part of the ligand or receptor.)
Since the 'postproduction' MMPBSA analysis is not performed with periodic boundary conditions but using a continuum solvent apporach (PB or GB), a total charge different from 0 is not an algorithmic problem.
Maybe this helps.
Regards,
Anselm
