Please tell me how that is different than that:

I can choose selectively what I want to read.
I can put a flag near threads that I like to "bookmark"
I don't get any e-mail in my regular mailboxes
I can search through the archives
Well, I don't have 
Stickies-like content go in the FAQs/AppDB/Wiki/Docs

Please don't add yet another source of information. People ought to know
how to use a mail client nowadays and most mail clients (even the
dreaded outlook express) can do nntp since ages.

As Jeremy White said before, I agree we could improve the instructions
on http://www.winehq.org/forums. And note that if your computer is
properly configured, a simple one-click on the nntp link on that page
will give your nntp client all the informations needed to access the
newsgroup.
