Hi Herb- First, you should know that publishing your IP in an message to a mail list may expose that address to spamming. I have disguised the original URLs above to show one convention for safely talking about this situation. If you really do want people on the list to access your IP (for test or diagnosis, say) you could include it in the text in a way to fool automated URL gathering tools -- such as "my IP address is 76,88,3,31 with dots". Disregard all this if you are truly talking about something intended to be accessed by the whole world. :-) Now your last statement has me confused. The browser in which you are trying to access wordpress is in the outside world? Or in your local private network? Or in the DMZ? You may need to give more details about your network -- are there 3 interfaces on your gateway/router (maybe: external, internal, dmz)? You may need to give more details about your firewall hardware, software and configuration. Try the simplest clarification first, and somebody will ask for more info as required.
