If you're using an Exchange account on the laptop as well, it's going to
access everything in the mailbox. If you have more than two weeks of data
in the mailbox, that's what Outlook will show you unless you create a filter
for the view that shows only the most recent two weeks.
Why do you care if the laptop can access the same data the desktop does?

It's purely down to the volume of mail as usual :/
I've suggest archiving, filing etc to no avail, its simply what the user
wants!

The volume of mail doesn't change when examining the mailbox from one or 50
computers. The mailbox contains what it contains. That's like saying the
person wants to see only the last two weeks of mail only when viewing it
with the left eye.
