If you have OE 5.0.3 installed on the laptop, copy the contents of the Documents>Microsoft User Data>Identities>Main Identities folder from your home machine to the same location on your laptop.
When you open OE on your laptop all of the messages, address book, rules, etc frmo your home machine will be in place. I have done this a number of times when one or the other of my machines has been down. Also, if you keep a lot of messages saved in OE, it's a good idea to back up all the files in that Main Identities folder from time to time.
