There may be other rule above your rule that is causing denial of the the specific port. Check the rule list with iptables -nL command. You can also try inserting the rule instead of appending (-I option). Another thing to try is, while trying to do telnet on that specific port run iptables -nVL command at the destination and observing the packet count increament you will understand what rule is causing the problem.
