That should be a request to the mailman folks. pipermail does not
provide a search functionality by default.

There are multiple searchable third-party archives on the web. I just
updated the list on the wiki, please see
  http://trac.macports.org/wiki/MailingLists#archives

Note that they might also allow to post messages, but you still need to
be subscribed.
