Well, just changing an option to "yes" may sometimes not be enough.
Perhaps you should reveal some more details concerning your
configuration...

How do you send this mail? Are you calling your sendmail (or postfix,
exim, whatever) binary directly or are you connecting to your MTA via
port 25?

What does your configuration look like?

Maybe the "wrong daemon" is listening on the outward network
interface?
