I understand your concern.  However, I don't think there is any real 
danger of not receiving messages if you set your preferences correctly.

Mailman has the following per user preference:

"""
Do you want to receive messages that do not match any topic filter?

This option only takes effect if you've subscribed to at least one topic 
above. It describes what the default delivery rule is for messages that 
don't match any topic filter. Selecting No says that if the message does 
not match any topic filters, then you won't get the message, while 
selecting Yes says to deliver such non-matching messages to you.

If no topics of interest are selected above, then you will receive every 
message sent to the mailing list.
"""
