This is happening because the two endpoints are encrypting/decrypting
with different keys (or different algorithms).

I know of at least one Mac client that was broken (I think that it was
doing 'stateless' mode incorrectly, but don't remember the details).

If you can scrounge up a Microsoft PPTP server and try your Mac client
against it, that would show whether the Mac client is to blame (assuming
the same MPPE options were negotiated).

Try also playing with the key length, turning 'stateless' mode on/off,
etc.
