I had a similiar experience last year, but it didn't work with any regularity. I'm using postfix and outgoing mail, as expected can be sent anywhere, but sometimes (and I haven't found any pattern to when it will work) I can, for example, send something to yahoo mail account and reply and actually successfully recieve the reply on my local machine.
