The mailman mailing list manager runs on a gnu.org system.  There is 
also an smtp mail server running on dreamhost that handles the mail for 
the octave.org domain.  It forwards the mail sent to @octave.org 
addresses that are used for the mailing lists (like those shown above) 
to the @gnu.org addresses where mailmain processes the list mail.

I will ask about that.
