I disagree. I only "like mail" when it's sent to at most three people. All the rest is unsubscribed to or I'll ask the sender to remove me.

Mail isn't made for broadcasting in my opinion. Aggregator sites like forums and blogs work much better with commenting, tagging, even liking etc.

Those people are numerous enough such that nearly every software company would profit from giving the option to have their preferences catered to.
