VPNs can be very tricky... Windows does have PPTP built in and maybe a
good firewall router will handle the incoming laptop connection for you,
no need to have 2 PCs 'doing' VPN, just the remote (laptop?) PC and the
router get it on the local LAN. (If you have Qs here write me, I do this
for a living.)

What we are NOT addressing in these replies to the original Q is:
What if the 2 PCs are accessing the mail database at the same time?
