Hi,
If there is no dns available, not using the brackets can cause issues I
have found. I just use the brackets by default when using private IP
space in particular.
Taken directly from man qmail-remote
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]
