Just a guess. I'm not sure what version of postfix was installed with
Debian 7 but if it was <= 2.8 could it be that your postfix server now
favors ipv6 over ipv4?  According to the docs, inet_protocols for <= 2.8
was set to ipv4 but is now set to all. There are other reports of issues
with using ipv6 and Gmail (for example
http://postfix.1071664.n5.nabble.com/disable-ipv6-when-sending-to-gmail-td60672.html)

Kind regards,
