Thanks, "davidson@freevolt.org."

That solved the problem. Both on the local box I'm in the process of 
reconfiguring as a Debian server, and on our Google Cloud server.

And my apologies to the List for my Friday repost of my question after 
it had already been answered: I've got half a dozen lists pouring 
traffic into my work email address, and once in a while, things get 
thrown out by mistake. Just last month, I threw out something from my 
boss (and if I remember right, it was also a direct reply to a question 
I'd asked).
