Yes, and any exceptions would be documented.

Btw, you can use the "tc:" prefix to search To/Cc: fields
as documented in https://lore.kernel.org/git/_/text/help/

You can get all the messages sent to you in gzipped mboxrd
format via:

  curl -sSf -d '' 'https://lore.kernel.org/git/?q=tc:hongyi&x=m' >mboxrd.gz

And public-inbox.org/git still exists for redundancy and dogfooding:

  curl -sSf -d '' 'https://public-inbox.org/git/?q=tc:hongyi&x=m' >mboxrd.gz

There may be a CLI tool for dealing with that in the near future
that lets you keep track of which messages you've read/unread or tagged :>
