[MPPE] stands for __M__icrosoft __P__oint-to-__P__oint __E__ncryption. It is a protocol designed for transfering encrypted datagrams over point-to-point links using encryption keys varying in length from 40 bits to 128 bits. See RFC:3078 and RFC:3079 for details.
If you want encrypt data when talking to Windows clients over a [PPTP] link, you will need to compile [MPPE] support into your [Kernel] and [pppd(8)]. (See http://public.planetmirror.com/pub/mppe/ or http://pserver.samba.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/ppp/linux/mppe/ - it's built into PPP 2.4.2)
