Interesting approach.

I'm not sure if that's a filesystem message or a msgbase issue. Do you have r/w access to the files? Does the username match? Some sharing tools offer a usermap feature that tells the server that the remote "mac" username is equal to the local "windows" username.
The msgbases are not multi access approved. If a tosser is active the area should be locked to prevent the editor to mess up the tossing run. I would look for other running sessions. How does the terminal service remote app from above work? A service is running in background all the time?
If all fails the last option would be a point installation on the mac that connects to the node on windows via mailer.
