An incomplete, shortened answer, without an explanation, containing
workarounds that much likely fit:

Actually 7 mails came through the list, see
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2021-February/date.html .
I received each one of those mails.

Seemingly (at least) mails send by yourself don't come through to you.
This is another issue, but blacklisting by freebsd.org. There are
several possible reasons for this behaviour.

Is "Receive your own posts to the list?" enabled by the mailman
settings? If not, enable it. If so, then one workaround is to Bcc to
yourself and to enable "Receive acknowledgement mail when you send mail
to the list?" by your mailman account.

If not only you mails are hold back, take a look in your gmail junk
folder...
