If it's not working, then either that isn't the correct IP address, or
the MUA you're using is broken and the mail is being refused for reasons
other than the rcpt domain (bare lf, etc).

What do you mean by "home dialup"?  If you mean you're dialling in
through an ISP, virtually all of them use DHCP addressing.  The other
possibility is the connection is coming through a NAT router/firewall,
so the effective IP address looks different once it reachs the qmail
box.
