Go to tools menu>accounts>select the account>properties>advanced tab.
Select the option to leave a copy of messages on the server.

You need to do this on both machines, it is advisable to set one of them to
remove messages from the server after a sensible number of days, (I use 21
days), or the online mailbox will fill and incoming mail will be bounced
back.

Assuming a POP email account, which defaults to deleting messages on the
server after downloading them...
You can setup both email programs to leave messages on the server after
downloading, so both can get a chance to download...

Tools - Accounts - youraccount - Properties - Advanced
[x] Leave a copy of messages on server
[x] Remove from server after [xx] days

Do this for all accounts on both computers, although you only need to set
one computer to remove after [xx] days, to keep the server inbox from
filling up.
