When the IP address of myhost.no-ip.org changes, iptables doesn't know that and won't allow the traffic from the new myhost.no-ip.org. This is the same for vuurmuur and therefor it is not possible to add hosts based on hostnames. You could use the PRE-VRMR-INPUT chains to add custom rules, but be aware of the problem mentioned above.
