I'm not sure what to ask them to do.

I have many forwards for each list on the server (not sure that all are 
needed, but I added them to be complete since all of these are used by 
mailmain):

  octave-maintainers@octave.org  octave-maintainers@gnu.org     
  octave-maintainers-admin@octave.org  octave-maintainers-admin@gnu.org
  octave-maintainers-bounces@octave.org  octave-maintainers-bounces@gnu.org
  octave-maintainers-confirm@octave.org  octave-maintainers-confirm@gnu.org
  octave-maintainers-join@octave.org  octave-maintainers-join@gnu.org
  octave-maintainers-leave@octave.org  octave-maintainers-leave@gnu.org
  octave-maintainers-owner@octave.org  octave-maintainers-owner@gnu.org
  octave-maintainers-request@octave.org  octave-maintainers-request@gnu.org
  octave-maintainers-subscribe@octave.org 
octave-maintainers-subscribe@gnu.org
  octave-maintainers-unsubscribe@octave.org 
octave-maintainers-unsubscribe@gnu.org

If you want to avoid the forwarding problems, then maybe the best 
solution is to just use the @gnu.org addresses directly?
