You could bounce messages sent to netfilter-devel@lists.netfilter.org
If the bounce message contained a
"mailing list has moved to netfilter-devel@lists.netfilter.org" message,
then assuming that people bother to read their bounces or don't routinely
discard them, then they would eventually get to send the message to the
right list.

Postfix has a relocated table for these "user has moved  to new_location"
messages. But you are using exim. I am not familiar with exim but perhaps
it has something similar?
