It would be cool if readers could rate message content by dragging a slider bar. Ratings could range from "objective" at the top, "subjective" in the middle, and "baaa-looo-neee" at the bottom. Sort content by cumulative ratings, where objective content sorts to the top. Allow users to apply a filter to eliminate pure baaa-looo-neee. Trolls who do little more than incite controversy by posting baaa-looo-neee would see their messages drop to the bottom of the list, or drop off entirely.

Email readers are not designed that way. A browser interface could do it.

Sounds like a forum.
What I miss with lists are "polls" which are easy to do in a forum.
