Yes,

I have an xp home and pro connected to the same home network as Windows
Vista premium. I use Eudora email to initiate the remote assistance
session. Doing so I can control any computer on my network from any other
computer on the network.

I've used Eudora to initiate control of computers outside my network. I
have never controlled a Windows Vista computer outside of my network but I
suspect it would work.
