The brackets are required.
>From qmail-remote(8):
The remote host is qmail-remote's first argument, host.
qmail-remote sends the message to host, or to a mail
exchanger for host listed in the Domain Name System, via
the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). host can be
either a fully-qualified domain name:
silverton.berkeley.edu
or an IP address enclosed in brackets:
[128.32.183.163]
If the mail is to be delivered locally to IP www.xxx.yyy.zzz,
[www.xxx.yyy.zzz] must appear in control/locals and control/rcpthosts.
