You can log on using telnet or something like putty, you can find putty on
tucows. I suggest reading the freebsd manual first. 
Another way is to install samba on turn of the encrypted password function
in windows, this way you can run a fileserver for your windows machine with
the least of troubles. (The reg key for disabeling encrypted pw's is in the 
readme of samba)

Sending mail to the FreeBSD machine won't be a problem I recommend setting up
things like popper and define some aliasses (vi /etc/aliasses; newaliasses)
for popper vi /etc/inetd.conf; killall -HUP inetd
Windows by itself doesn't run a mailserver, you need extra software for that,
but I think you mean the use of popper so you can fetch your mail from the 
FreeBSD server using Outlook or something similar.

Read lots of docs. ;-) Some starting points are the FreeBSD handbook, the man
pages of the above commands (e.g. man inetd or man -k inetd) and the samba 
manuals. (try searching for it in the ports, or at www.freebsd.org to get
more info about it)
