Hey Eric!

Yeah, I've grepped the control files for any IP but they are not used there.

I got the firewall script with a grep in /etc too, so I guess I'll be fine.

Thanks for the help!

There shouldn't necessarily be anything in the Qmail configuration where 
  the IP address is specified. An exception might be the 
/var/qmail/control/me file, where some folks prefer to use an IP address 
instead of a host name. If you have a host name there, you should be 
good to go. Of course if you have the IP address there, you'll need to 
change it. ;)

If you use the firewall.sh script from the installation procedures, be 
sure to change that accordingly. You should also have an additional line 
in there to allow access from you local subnet.
