I don't believe Gmail permit what you want unless you have their (paid) G Suite product (quote: "Show that you're in business and look professional with custom email addresses at your company domain."). The obvious solution (as already suggested here) is to get GSuite - for one or a small number of email_addresses@yourdomain it isn't expensive. Otherwise, you need a mail server with *static ipv4*. (This is also required for the solution/page to which Arnold refers, which permits you to send emails@yourdomain using the Gmail app or the Gmail web page). To achieve this: - get a static ipv4 address for your mail server from your existing provider (but they may not offer this, or it may be prohibitively expensive) - find a service offering free relaying (via static ipv4) from own domain for (low volume) accounts - rent a vps that offers static ipv4 address: this isn't free but for >1 email address can be cheaper than G Suite P.S. The preferred style on the postfix-users mailing list is to bottom-post (as I have done here), not to top-post.
