You have to write every e-flat really as an e flat, not as an e. If you write it as "e", you will get an e (i.e. the natural!). Rather, you have to enter it as "es". See http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond-learning/Accidentals-and-key-signatures.html And there in particular the last section "Warning: key signatures and pitches".
