First, the practice on this mailing list is to Cc all, and from what
I have seen people tend to do that (well, at least the regular participants).

Second, you can read this mailing list (and send emails / respond) with
a news reader via the NNTP interface (gmane or public-inbox).  News readers
usually have good search capability.

Hope that helps
