The IP/host isn't part of what RewriteRule and RewriteCond look at 
(though you can tell at least RewriteCond to), but I don't think you 
need mod_rewrite here anyway.  How about going simpler?

RedirectPermanent /~the_account/ http://the_live_domain.com/

This assumes you don't actually access 
http://the_live_domain.com/~the_account/
