   I know that WordPress.com bloggers can now reply to comments via email, skipping the WordPress admin entirely. But when will WordPress.org standalone blogs get this functionality?

   In the post by Joseph Scott (http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2009/04/23/comment-reply-via-email-open-to-all/) announcing this feature, Matt responded to a comment asking the above question, by suggesting a commenting system like Intense Debate. So, I suspect this is not coming (at least in near future) to non-wordpress.com WP blogs.

   My problem with Disqus, Intense Debate (though to be honest I have not used ID, so maybe I am wrong) is that they break the theme styling for the comments section. So I too would like this feature. To implement it for generic WP blogs they will need to add some more code to let us specify a From address and then use that address. Also a mechanism to feed responses back into WP would be needed.

   Can be achieved via IntenseDebate, I think... see my blog post at http://ahren.org/code/bit/reply-via-email-for-wordpress-blogs.
