Turns out it was pretty easy to add debian-user to a whitelist (instructions 
below), but no obvious way to specify "Resent-from".  I have now received one 
post by Dedeco, so this might have done the job.

<instructions>

On your gmail webmail page:

   * Click on the gear in the upper right corner -- that should take you to 
the "Settings" page
   * Choose "Filters and Blocked Addresses"
   * Scroll to the bottom
   * Choose "Create a New Filter"
   * Enter the criteria (e.g., email address, ...)
   * Click "Create Filter"
   * Choose action, e.g., "Never send it to Spam"

You can also do things like forwarding an email to somewhere else.

Blocking IP addresses: there is a way to block IP addresses, but:

If you have the legacy free edition of G Suite, upgrade to Google Workspace to 
get this feature.
