[CentOS] Forwarding connections/packets across interfaces

Have a inter-interface routing issue, hoping someone can either throw a
clue or point me where I can get one. This is on a CentOS 3.7 system.
Have interfaces eth0 and eth1. eth0 is connected to internal network,
eth1 to separate distinct network. The default route on the box is set
to the roter address on the eth1 network. I have static routes defined
to send local network traffic to eth0 and eth0's router.
I have a mail server (and a test program as well) that binds to an
address on eth1, and tries to connect to an address on eth0's network.
Connections just time out. I've tested connections where I did not bind
to a specific interface and I can make the connection.
I've set rp_filter=0, and ip_forward=1 for all interfaces, and still
cannot get a connection from eth1's address to something off of eth0's
networks. Firewalls are disabled on the host.
Is there additional voodoo that needs to be set to allow traffic to
cross from one interface to the other?
Thanks in advance for any advice or pointers. I hope I've made the
problem clear enough...
