That'll be interesting to sort out!
Are you (both) on wired or wireless connections?
Are you both using the same server / account for mail?
To be honest it sounds like something is wrong with your NAT
router/firewall in that the packets are being sent to the wrong host -
it could be configuration or it could just be a bug, but it certainly
seems like packets are going astray.

It's probably because your office doesn't use a NAT'd network - or that
the NAT router works properly.
