I haven’t done it, because I realised any reply I sent would be saved to /dev/null, but being able to *would* be handy. When I still had Facebook, a significant percentage of my interaction with people was done via my email client; their “reply to this email to comment” function was really handy. That said, I generally prefer using my email client for most of this sort of stuff.
