>From spec.txt:

  For a temporary error that is not related to an individual address, (for
  example, a connection timeout), each line in the retry configuration is
  checked twice. First, the name of the remote host is used as a domain name
  (preceded by '*@' when matching a regular expression). If this does not match
  the line, the domain from the email address is tried in a similar fashion.
  
Note that nowhere does it mention an IP address. In other words, your 
rules will never trigger.
