to narrow it down...

try this:

ping your local machine with port 25 and a trace, then try and ping your destination machine with the port and try a trace. I don't know the rules of the organization so i'm not sure of your policies to restart smtp services but with root access you will be able to see if it is active or not without restarting it.

you may want to try telnet to your local server with port 25 as well to confirm it's working as well since your "localhost" is your mail server.

also try on both machines to send a email to the same machine.
