I have to visit a forum to see what's new. That means I have to schedule
the effort.
Email is a "push notification" system, and as Dave McGuire said,
"the interrupt-driven nature of a mailing list tends to be a lot more
efficient".
If this mailing list uses mailman software, then there is a searchable
web archive of all posts, such that somebody can treat it like a forum if
the are so inclined. Just click on "sort by thread".

This email is probably free of malware because I run Linux.
