OK, what you want is to have all messages available on both computers.
I do that with POP, using the office computer and the home computer.
The longest time I stay away from the office computer is, say, four
days. So, the home computer is set to delete messages from the server
after five days from my private account. (The company messages are
deleted automatically after 30 days from the server, so I have no
setting in TB to delete those.)

IMAP is supposed to allow you access to the same message base from
different computers, but I have never used it and do think it would be
an overkill for your purposes. But then, the same policy as I
described for POP may work as well.
