Exchange Server name doesn't match RDNS lookup

I have a problem.
When my emails are sent out from my Exchange 2003 server, they are sent
out from our internal network (192.168...), using the name
bark.iwafibp.ca as our internal server.

When they are outside of our internal network, if a reverse DNS lookup
is done, there is no bark.iwafibp.ca in existence, so it says it can't
find our server.

Is there a way to tell exchange to use a different name than the server
name when sending out emails? Would this be the best solution?

Thanks
