You would have to share some config so I can see what you're missing because the article really gives you all the right info on how to do this (I use it for my network as well).

Considering the mail server is external and likely has proper DNS records setup, you may be better off either setting up a local DNS record on the client network that resolves the host name to a local address.  Alternately, you could try DNS translation.
