[Koha] Need assistance setting up SRU target

I'm hoping someone might be able to see what I'm doing wrong. I'm trying 
to set up an SRU target for SwissBib. The SRU information for SwissBib 
is at http://www.swissbib.org/wiki/index.php?title=SRU . (We're using 
Koha v. 3.18.05.100)

I've used the SRU Explain function ( 
http://sru.swissbib.ch/sru/explain?operation=explain ) to get 
information about search attributes.

In setting up the SRU target in Koha, I've used the following.

Hostname: sru.swissbib.ch
Port: 80
Database: sru/search/defaultdb
Syntax: UNIMARC
Encoding: utf8

Additional SRU options: operation=searchRetrieve
(I've tried using other SRU options, too, but this seems to be the 
minimum required.)

SRU Search fields mapping:
Title - dc:title
ISBN - dc:identifier
Any - dc:anywhere
Author - dc:author
ISSN - dc:identifier
Standard ID - dc:id

The following URL will produce results in my web browser, but I get no 
results when I do an equivalent SRU search in Koha.

http://sru.swissbib.ch/sru/search/defaultdb?query=+dc.anywhere+%3D+verne&operation=searchRetrieve&maximumRecords=10

Does anyone have any thoughts about what's wrong? Thanks in advance.
