Well that's embarrassing.  Yes, I had apparently left a line in 
/etc/hosts from when I was setting up the old server a few years ago.

I did check the DNS with nslookup quite early in my diagnosis process 
here, but obviously that doesn't use /etc/hosts entries to find its 
data, so I'd given myself the false impression that the problem wasn't 
with the DNS stage.

Thank you very much for your help.
