So, is there a way to safeguard against this? I assume when I connect to an exchange server at home it doesn't have root access to my laptop, right?

Amazed your question doesn't have upmods, it's very original.
Can my personal laptop be remotely wiped if I connect my email client to an exchange server? If not, why not? It seems to me that a laptop is even more likely to leak sensitive information out of email, like spread sheets and word documents.
