This doesn't make any sense. No one is going to email you or write a blog posts for some minor remark. Not only will you not get any discussion on your site but you also would not get corrections if you'r wrong on the subject, which hurts your blog. Now there are easy ways to implement comments even for static sites, specially with the so called 'serverless cloud' servers.

It makes sense when you can be liable for what others say, and when you don't want to maintain a small community forum under each post, and when you want you blog to be a platform for your ideas.

I've gotten such emails in the past. Written too.

Easy ways available only as long as companies who sell them are available. Not also that, but with user-hostile tracking code packaged in. And even if self hosted, then adding lots of burden for not much gain, given it needs to be maintained and secured.

I get emails from my blog with some frequency. The people who write me come with questions or additions to my content. The signal-to-noise ratio has been amazing compared to any comment/forum system I've used in the past. I think the very small barrier to contact greatly improves the quality of the contact.

This echoes my experience. Comments are mostly useless, but people who email me are generally more helpful. I have an email link right next to each post, so it's probably easier to email me than it is to write a comment.
