Are Yahoo Groups allowing to access regular newsgroups? Supposing it is,
making Wine's mailing a newsgroup would make it accessible through that
service and others (ex Google Groups). I haven't used that feature, but I
know Google Groups allows to rate posts with 1-5 stars.

I'm not an heavy newsgroup user, so I'll leave it to you to find
disadvantages of using that approach.
