So you have two computers checking the same email account?
By default, whichever computer downloads mail first will make it
unavailable for the other one. To change this default:
Tools, Accounts, select the account, Properties, Advanced,
enable "Leave a copy of messages on server." Also select one
of the two associated 'remove' options.
Do this on both computers.

Are both machines set to leave a copy of the messages on the server? Is
this something that just started happening? Did you always check the
laptop first and have changed to doing that second?

Sorry just a little fruterated i did not change anything it has been working

Apparently we are not grasping what your issue is.
Now you say you get emails on both computers? I thought the
problem was that one computer was not getting incoming emails.

Can you describe the problem in more detail?
